Twoo weeks ago my lights began to dim and the radio shut off as I returned to work. I shut the car off and needed a jump. After the jump the car continued to run and I was able to make the 20 mile trip home. THe next day it started right up and I had no problems. For two weeks the battery light would come on and then go off but I had not problems(I know, I have been meaning to check the connections, but the battery is behind the driverside wheel and it has been cold outside) So tonight the radio went out, so I shut of everything else that was sucking power, heater, etc. Then the lights continued to dim until the fuel pump I assume lost power(the fuel light came on), I put it in nuetral and coasted to a safe place to stop. The battery had some power but not enough to start on its own. We checked the battery and alternator last week and the showed good on the meter, maybe bad connections, can someone give me a good idea on what the likely suspect is; is the alternator slowly petering out, can the do that or is it a all or nothing kind of thing! Appreciate the help!
