Default electrical problem?

alright what do you guys think, when i have the car on with nothing on its fine but when i turn on my headlights or have my deck on 50% of the time when im driving it will cut off. sometimes i can start it right back up but other times i sounds like it isnt getting fuel it will crank but wont turn over? could it be a bad main relay?

make sure the alternator is putting out enough juice... then start checking relays and such

when it stalls leave your headlights on and turn it over, if the headlights drop you have either a battery or alternator problem, it sounds like the alternator is shot. Hope this helps.
