1999 Cadillac sevillests. 100,600 miles on odometer. While driving at slow speed (in town) , engine will stop entirely,. - I lose my power steering, brakes and everything else . When I get stopped, engine will start immediately. I'e had the battery checked, and am told all the connections were "fine". A gm dealer recently tuned the engine , and suggested that he replace the wiring" he did so. He did this @ two months before the trouble started. The dealer is out of business.

When I get stopped, the engine will start immediately. Have checked battery connection and it checks "fine".
