Re: alternator ?
Your alternator is under or over charging. Usually under. The indicater light means you are running off of the battery. You will need to have the charging system checked since it can be damaged by a bad battery or loose connection. Most parts stores will do this for free. Good Luck.

Re: alternator ?
agree. Your alternator or belt is failing. Your battery is not getting a proper charge. Simple to change the alternator, new one around 40 bucks. Takes about 30 mins.
