alternator/battery Autozone,,Advance auto parts stores can check it
out for you for free. Need to put a load test on battery, and check if the
alternator is putting out enough juice.

Is it headlights only or all the lights? If it's headlights only, check the ground right at each light...make sure it's on clean shiny metal.

Hello. My battery died and I got a new one but my radio won't work now. Someone told me about an access code that I need to put in? How do I do that? Thank you.
