Mysterious Electrical Problem *PLEASE HELP*

and what makes you think i didn't?? I checked all lights, electrical equipment, indicators and visible grounds, but couldn't find anything wrong. I am trying to narrow my search for the loose/faulty connection.
UPDATE - I took my car to an electrician and found that the car is throwing a P0622 code (this code does not illuminate the check engine light).
From the tech manual the "P0622 - Alternator FR terminal system" means "Open circuit or short-circuit in system-related circuits"

The problem is most likely somewhere inside the car under the dash. The problem disappears when the inside of the car cools when i turn on the A/C and park the car under a shaded area. I'm gonna check all ECU connections today...

Well... After three days of looking around the car... I checked almost everywhere I can reach... Everything was ok... I took my car to a number of shops... A number of electricians looked into the problem and no one figured it out... Except or this genius Indian guy named Anil... He found the problem over lunch without using any tool, just his bare hands... He told me "Hada timer bought kharab"...
This English/Arabic/Indian sentence solved everything.
Hada = this (Arabic)
Timer = timer (English)
Bought = very (Indian)
Kharab = not working (Arabic)
Translation: my greddy turbo timer is leaking power like crazy and it's beyond repair...
He also figured out a way to verify it... He noticed if the car was on for more than a minute... Then I turn it off and back on in 10 seconds... all 3 ACD lights will light up.. Indicating there is a problem in the ACD system, which is the insufficient power reaching it.
I would thank you for helping my out... But the two replies I received were useless... So my thanks would go to the original poster who helped me eliminate a few causes....
