          Sounds like an alternator issue for sure. Check all grounds first, and then do your voltage tests for the alt.

          Sounds like your alt is fried though. My dad's 2008 Mazda B4000 had the gauges, airbag light and radio go all wacky and turned out the alternator voltage was spiking because the alt was faulty, so it was replaced under warranty and he has had no issues since.

            Check your main ground connected to the negative battery. Follow this to where it grounds at. Either on the transmission or engine i forgot. Make sure its bolted on good and doesnt look corroded. Recently my ground wire corroded away and i had the same sympthoms.

                Can you get a new battery under warranty?

                  Yeah... But would the battery cause this issue?? The car is obviously having low voltage issues... Shouldnt the alternator if working properly be able to run the motor/lights etc. without the battery..

                  Not trying to say your wrong just trying to get some info

                  Running out of time and am really frustrated right now

                          Is it a brand new alternator or one from JY? I work as a mechanic and sometimes when we get even a new alternator from the parts store they come bad. It mightbe bad? obviuosly if ur only pumpn out 11.4v. It should be at 14.6v.
