Car sporadically dies on bumps.

Here is what happened.

Was approaching a left hand corner in second gear, turn right real quick than back left while clutching kicking it.

Car starts lighting up the rear end and getting sideways.... then dies. Starts up, for a second, then dies, then starts back up and so on; all while my rear tires are hoping all over the place causing the car to bounce and vibrate. So after that I get on my merry way back to work, and my car dies and starts back up over every bump I come too.

So I pop my hood, check all my connections, and examine the main fuse. Turns out it was loose and intermittently loosing contact. So I reseated it and BAM, problem solved.

So no this is not a question, just an FYI to anyone that has or may have a similar problem.

Thanks for reading.
