I have a 04 srt-10 convertible, just recently it started stalling when turning right, it will start right back up, if i make a slow right turn it wont do it, its like there is a wire shorting out on something only when i turn hard right. any ideas what it could be or has anybody had this problem?

I had that same problem with a Vette I used to race. Long story short. After checking EVERYTHING it turned out to be a loose plate in the battery.
Hope this helps and saves you grief.

Do you have headers ? I have read on the forums of more than one case of a sensor wire's insulation being burnt through by touching the header. (I don't remember whish wire.) I could picture that a movement of the engine due to possibly a bad motor mount (not unheard of) during a turn, causes the exposed conductor to make an electrical short to ground.

Nearly all wire shorts (any sensor wire) will blow a fuse. Shutting off completely does sound like something in the main 12V battery line. I would start there.
