Mechanic Maxwell was checking his car when the engine and lights went out on the road on the rise. 

They resumed work, but the idea several times intensified and stopped. He decided to turn off the engine and the car stopped.

To his left, he saw a "diamond-shaped figure with a cropped top" sitting silently on the ground forty-five meters away in the pen. 

His car radio became "funny", making a constant rhythm like "computer on TV". 

As soon as he stopped the car, he tried to turn the ignition key, but when he turned it, nothing happened, not even the oil light came on. Then he tried the wipers and the electric beep, but they didn't work either. 

He locked all the doors, wound up the Windows, and just sat there for the next forty-five minutes.

After this time, the object left, and he found that he could restart the machine. 

An inspection of the car the next day revealed no cause for electrical problems.
