abs lights came on yesterday on the way to the store. On the way home the engine died and all Mom got was a clicking sound when she tried to restart it. Today I went out and it started but didn't sound like it was going to and so I watched the voltage. It started at 11 (which I know is weak) but it continued to fall down to 9 volts and I just shut it off and then it tried to pull codes but there wasn't enough juice left. I would normally think this was the alternator (that doesn't look fun the change) or possibly the battery. I know I can go the Autozone to see, but I am afraid it will leave me stranded. Is there a way I can check this at home? And if it is one of these, would it cause the traction, stability, abs problem?
Thanks!
