Car died on drive home
I drive a 94 civic ex d16z6 stock
Last night i was driving down teh highway at cruising speed then my lights went out then my speedo stoped then my stereo stoped working, then i had to stop at a light and pulled over tehre and my car was dead i could hear clicking when i started to try to start it. then i started hearing a clicking under teh dash near the fuse box and thought there might be a short down there i checked teh wires everything looked fine. i got it jumped and then about 20 seconds after the jump everything went out again and the car died. now its at the gas station waiting for me to come get my baby. i dont know if it was the alternator or if taht would be something else more common because it started fine when i left but then died when i was driving it. and also the car battery dies very easily if i leave my lights on, if i leave them on for more than 10 mins my battery is dead?
anyone else know what it may be
and yes i did search this topic but none were really teh same
