[cactikid]

you will need to check if fan belt is still there and tight,also need to check altenator is charging if not car only drives on power of battery

[afonso rico]

makes a test with a multimeter, with the moving car to see if the alternator is charging
you can also have a battery short circuit

Looks like that alternator dead.

[ominimicu]

yeah. looks like alternator to me.

You should have arround 12v normall battery operation voltage. and arroud 14v with the engine started.

If you dont get more than 12, the alt is faulty, cable connections or the alt belt.
