Best Answer

if the car dies when the lights come on then IT IS your alternator. Another way to test this would to be after you start your car take the battery cables off of the battery. if your alternator is good then the car should keep the car running. besides that there could just be a bad connection. if you live near an auto zone or a store of that sort they have machined they can hook up and read the prob inside. if it's nothing the it can reset it also.
