If its not the battery check to make sure that you have the belt that goes to you alt. before buying a new alt. I had the problem before and I took my car to Autozone and the guy tested out my car and said it was my alt. But when i got home and looked at it the next morning all i needed was a belt.

That's funny. The same thing happened to me, but all I needed was to clean the connections. Eff corporate parts stores when it comes to alt. testing.
