Randomly down voltage on hotend pins

Randomly down voltage while printing. Corrupt detail and litter extruder.
Return by hands(set hotend temperature) in Pronterface.
Sanguino v 1.3b/Mendel Prusa.

What do make to move? Atmega 644P malfunction? Noise?

P.S. Excuse me for probable errors. English is not native language.

I had something similar when some of the connectors oxidized. My DC motor spindle sometimes simply stopped or slowed down for a few seconds, without visible reason. Some grease for battery poles (an acid-free grease, get it from a dealer for car batteries) put into the connector pin holes is a great help in such cases. It spreads on it's self and the oxidization will slowly go away.
