2006 infiniti G35 Sedan

Whenever I turn, left or right, the interment panel and center console (air controls and CD/radio player) turn off. And If I turn hard, the entire car’s engine shuts off. The only way to get the car to run again is to completely disconnect the positive battery terminal, and reconnect it. After that, the car runs normally, until I turn regularly/semi aggressive again.HELP!

Sure sounds like a loose electrical connection.

Have you made any recent changes... aftermarket accessories, etc? How about any recent accidents or body damage repairs?

Something sounds very wrong with your car and in my honest opinion you need to take this to a good repair facility asap. It sounds like you have not just one but several wires being pulled by the turning of your steering wheel. This can either be the main wiring harness on the passenger side of the inner fender.

This type of damage is usually easy to locate (if it exists) but is going to be complex to fix (again if it exists), but this is a very case by case type of issue.

What you might want to take a flashlight and hunt for is wires contacting the steering shaft. From the steering wheel all the way to the rack and pinion. If the shaft checks out fine that something is going to be contacting the front wheels. You will need to look up into the fender wells for what's contacting the wheels.

I wish you the best of luck with this and hopefully I am wrong.

Nice contribution. What the hell are you mad at?
