when  i turn the key all the idiot light go on and dim to almost nothing. clicking sounds from the consol. now when i jump start it and drive it the headlights dim whenever i hit the brakes or use any acessory. it my alternator fried or is it just the battery? ill let you know what it was tommorrow when i can check it out.

Have your battery recharged and then get it tested. If it checks out, it is most likely ur alternator.

Test alternator charge by:

- start car and let it run
- turn on all accessories
- disconnect battery cable

If your car dies, its the alternator. Your accessories run on alternator juice once the car is running
