i thought maybe that idk how tho maybe a incorrect fuse somewhere? could too big or small of fuse cause this

too big of fuse would just take more to blow and too small would blow too easy. you said it comes back on so its not a fuse problem. i'd look underneath the dash for any obvious wire getting snagged when the pedal is down.

btw you seem to be having a lot of problems lately. hope u get them all fixed.

i kno i was thinkin of selling car its been like this since i bought it. even the gm dealership says its crazy cuz usually aleros are very reliable cars.my buddy had one that i dont recall every being in the shop one time besides oilchange tires brakes. i have a stack of paperwork from issues that would make ur head spin. i checked title one point i thought the thing was a salvage or something. right now the bill tally is at 4700 dollars since february second 2008. sick isnt it.

wow thats a lot of repairs. i just checked my vin at work for anything ever done to it cause i thought it was bad. sumin it up i found out my ho was a rental car for avis(

) when it was new in NJ in others words it got the shit beat out of it. And the only repairs on record is one recall and a flat tire repair.

if mine stood up to being a rental yours shouldn't be doin this is my point

^mine was a rental too, but i've done more beating to it, then it got before i was around....
