About a month ago I was driving and the battery meter said it was on a high voltage. I pulled over turned the car off then back on and the light would go away.
Last week I noticed whenever I would go faster then 10mph the light would come on and it would go away if I came to a stop. Now, the car won't start. If I turn the key to on the lights come on and the windows work. If I try and turn the car on it does a click sound and I lose all power. If I try and do it again the lights won't come on. got it to start with a jump but I have to keep it gassed or it will stall. I took the battery to Autozone and tested good. Changed the alternator and still had issues.
I'm out of ideas. Good battery(fully charged) so the car should turn on regardless of a bad alternator. Bad started, maybe bad spark plugs?
Idk if this is relevant but I swapped my battery out for a friends and it started. Drove it around then the battery died and is no longer holding charge. Mine is still good though.
My car has 200000 miles.
