When im driving the isuzu, it cuts the engine when i brake and it shows check engine light.I have to restart it to continue driving.It is petrol 3.2ltr v6 automatic
I had a similar problem with my pt cruiser, check the battery terminals sometimes its just a bad connection, you may need to buy new terminals, only ten dollars maybe

Change your gearbox oil, and clean out the oil strainer.
Should help.
( On some models, you have to remove the gearbox oil pan to clean the strainer )

Not sure about DTC but Diesel Bighorns have a real problem with cooking their alternators which present with similar symptoms to what you have described.
Hope this helps.

Hi.
A failed start can happen for a number of reasons. If this happened just once, it should not be reason for concern.
If the problem happens again, the first test you can do to locate the problem is an OBDII code scanning.
The scan can be done at any local garage. If you purchase a scanner like the ones linked below you can read the codes by yourself.
OBD-II-Scan/dp/B001LHVOVK
OBD2-Trouble-Code-Reader-Scanner
The connector is located under the dash.
Once you have the codes you can get back to us for an explanation. Here you can also find basic info on OBD codes.
If the problem happens regularly, then other test that must be done is checking fuel and vacuum pressure using a Vacuum and Fuel Pump Tester. This is a gauge that must be placed in between the lines to read pressure.
By reading fuel pressure it is possible to spot problems caused by blockage, fuel pump malfunction and problems with fuel pump aeration.
By reading pressure on vacuum lines whilst heating the lines with an hand torch (this must be done by a mechanic), you can find vacuum leaks.
Engine shut down can be caused by a number of reasons. Among possible causes misfire, rich or lean mixture, air intake blockage, MAF or AIT sensor problem, fuel circulation problem, vacuum problem, fuel tank cap not allowing air in, electronic injection problems.
If you get the problem again, read codes and replace spark plugs, air filter and fuel filter.
Regards.

After having check lights on vehicles for 31 years, with the new 2011's coming out, I assume your well educated and know what to do.
If you do not not repair your own vehicles, and know todays technology,you should be off to the nearest repair shop, within a couple of days of ANY Lights coming on.
Got to get the codes,then follow a diagnostic chart or process to repair your isssues. And-- NO--Codes-- do not tell you what to replace, on any OBD2 System (1996 thru2011)
