Well, electrical has nothing to do with an engine overheating......unless your fans simply don't work. So while you are sitting still it will overheat if the fans are not coming on.

When a lot of different electrical issues pop up that are from completely unrelated systems......it's usually a battery that is shorting out inside.

I would have the battery tested at an auto parts store to start with.......
