You need to start here. Have your charging system tested for free at Autozone.

9 out of ten chance you need a new alternator or fusible link.


Thank you, turns out both alternators i had both had blown out regualtors.. thanks for your response tho

Your alternator probably took a dump and is probably not producing enough voltage to power all the systems on the vehicle.  Check the battery voltage at idle.  It should be around 14.5 volts for a good alternator.

Check all the fuses.
