The trick is to get it to crap out in the driveway so you can trouble shoot it. Or try to replicate the condition. So it happens when you pull in to park. Was it the same turn both times? As in left or right. Do you go up an incline?

Foot on the brake or clutch, look for a wire touching a ground like the pedal arm. With the car running, pull and tug on every connection. I recently had a bad solder sleeve powering up my electric fan.

How is the battery? A loose plate inside can short it out momentarily and it resets itself once the plate shifts again.
