This can be caused by a weak or bad regulator switch.

this can be caused by 3 things that come to mind primary would be a bad voltage regulator about 14 dollars at local autoparts store, a slipping belt you prob already checked that, or in the case i am having ATM a bad ignition switch, i am looking for electrical scamatics so i can find a way to fix or bypass mine its being a pain to find

The quickest and easiest fix is to charge the battery and then wait and see if it happens again after. If it happens then you should have it looked at by a professional
