1997 Subaru electrical problem	Sign In

I was driving last night and the speedometer and heater stopped working. I noticed that the lights inside my car on the dashboard went dim and my ABS light was on. I stopped at a red light and when I started to go, my car was barely moving. So I pulled over to the curb and turned it off, I tried to restart it, but it cranked slowly and then there was just clicking. Today I went out and started it immediately. I am afraid to go anywhere in it because of the possiblity of getting stranded. Please help!!!!!!

sounds to me like your alternator might have gone out ,after the car sits all night the battery will come back to life some with the car running you should have about 14 or 15 volts at the battery also check your fuses
