The car hit 360,000 and I sent it in for timing belt and a new clutch. Along the way they ran into a few other things that needed replaced. I got the car back last Tuesday and drove it around 50 miles back to my house, and it felt brand new. Went to drive it two hours later and the ABS light turns on backing out of my driveway, then the airbag light comes on. By the time I got it turned around and back to the house the dash lights were very dim and my radio kept turning on and off. I charged the battery and took it to autozone to run the battery and alternator test. Battery checked out fine, but was too low to do a alt test. I assumed it was the alternator and spent an hour popping it off. Took it and the battery to advance and had them test them both, and both passed the tests....twice. I then took them to autozone and had them check each one and both passed. I put the alternator and charged battery back in. Was getting 12.59 volts with the car off and around 12.23 with car running. Drove the car 5 miles in town to return the new alternator I didn't need, and by the time I got home the ABS and airbag light came back on. I have checked battery connections, alternator connections, ground going to the engine, the fuse link from the battery to alternator, and all seem to be fine. I checked the battery voltage with the car off and it was around 12.15, then checked at the hot wire to the alternator and the plug to the alternator, both had matching voltages.
Any ideas?
