Ford 2003 F350 electrical problem

During high acceleration, or quick start the gauges pin to the left, the power to the truck dies, but it keeps driving. I have changed the altenator twice. Any help would be appreciated.

Get in there and wiggle all the wires and see if you can make it happen..Under the hood and under the dash..
Why would you change the alt. You could disconnect it and the truck would run fine the battery is still hooked up.

electrical problem

It is not only the gauges, the power windows won't work, door locks, radio, everything electric. It comes right back on again. Is there any way of narrowing this down? Thanks.

Did you ever figure out what the problem was? I think I'm having the same issue with my 06...
