I guess the alternator is bad. Do you know what kind of alternator do I need? DO you has the part number for the alternator.

Thanks,

same issue with my car, I had to replace the alternator,belt and battery, I did it at the stealer for $1600, only because it happened 70 miles away for home and had it towed to the closest stealer..
