Check engine light with loss of power

[jxj]

My situation this morning to work-check engine light comes on, power steering starts to go out and enginge starting to stall. Pulled over to the side of the highway and checked as much as I could in the dark. Engine oil, trans fluid, coolant, Power steering fluid, belt tension all good, no leaks. All connections that I could see or reach were intact. After checking all around and making some calls, decided to start it up-no problems, waited 5 mins to see if anything would come up-nothing, got to work, did another check, all is well. Forgot to see if any codes came up - check that later.
But does anyone have any idea what this may be-loose or faulty connector or something worse?

It sounds like you might have lost belt tension at some point so I suggest you check all the engine pulleys and make sure none of them are loose or wobbly.
