Before this I saw the ABS light and the occasional battery light. I mean like in the previous 2 miles. I was -><- close to being home too.

Anyways, I'm just thrilled. I was thinking about buying a new battery and at a minimum take it to the shop to check the alternator. Can O'Reileys do this? With the battery hooked up?

I guess that does it for now.

I tried to start it in gear and got nothing too. It also has been like 20 here the last 2 weeks which probabily was hell on the battery I'd guess. I live in Mobile, AL for your information.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!
First thing to check is if you broke the belt. And then start thinking about an alternator.
