I'd start by checking your grounds. Sounds like an electrical issue and I've seen some crazy things caused by a simple ground connection corroded or loose. And the fact that it's random makes me think a ground problem even more. That's where I'd start anyway.

Start with the battery connections. Take them loose, clean the connections(cable ends), and where they mate with the battery post(I use a small stainless brush), and then reconnect them. Snug them down good.
