Re: voltage problems...... pls help.....
Sounds like a bad alternator have the charging voltage checked, just basics here.

Re: voltage problems...... pls help.....
I second what the guy before me said.
Is this an intermittent problem or did it just drop off and stay off? You MIGHT try checking your electrical connections on your alternator, but it sounds like a bad alternator. Fortunately that's an inexpensive part and a very easy change-out.
