well i guess the alternator has finally gone out..this morning i started the car and it cut out on me 3 times, the battery and the check engine light both go off all three times and come back on, and then it was running and i turned on the heater and the radio..and then it just died..tried starting it all it will do is crank..any suggestions?

take your alternator in to get checked...to see if it is bad

Most likely it's the alternator

Wait, does it crank now, and then just die off?

Well, a good way to check to see if its the alternator is to turn the car on. And while the car is running pull either the negative or positive connection on the battery. If it turns off, then its the alternator and the car is just running on the battery. Which means the alternator not working, causing it to drain the battery.

 

I would suggest that you pull the Neg. from the battery.

 

Yeah i believe its the neg too. LOL!

 

The alternator is dead. Just replace it.

 

ok well UPDATED i pulled the fuel pump out and well..its not getting any fire to it...any suggestions

 

Ok dude, in your F/S posty you state your car may soon need an alternator, so thats probally your cause.
If you're battery lights on, thats a dead giveaway your alternator has crapped.
Replace it and you'll be a-ok.

 

Replace the alternator first
