I pulled the battery out and took it to Kragen to have it tested (battery is only about 4 months old). They said it was fully charged and in perfect shape.

I bought an alternator. So my plan right now is to take the alternator back to my car (abou 60 miles away) and try to swap it out and hope that is the problem.

Just thought of something else that might help diagnose the problem.

Last night when it died I hooked jumper cables up to my car (with no battery in it, just straight to the battery cables) and jumped my car off of the car that came to pick me up. The car started up and was running fine (power to everything while the jumper cables were hooked up). It did still have the cell for an electrical problem. I don't know if this helps clarify or rule out anything....

Thanks for the help!!
