    Ignition cutting out on big bumps

    1991 318is.. Seems I get an electrical cutout on certain big bumps. Happens just for a blink..highway or local roads. Suspension is firm but good. Battery secure and clean connections.Starter power wire secure.
    TIA

    Think I found the problem. The secondary wire running with the positive wire to the front of the battery was getting cut but the edge in the trunk where the battery sits…thus the short out on bumps. Moved battery closer to edge to give more of a gap between floor and positive wire plus covered the edge with insulation and put a wire loom protection over positive batt wire.
