I stopped reading that after the first couple of words, I suggest you add some punctuation, maybe even some sentences and paragrpahs.

It's probably also supposed to be in help zone from the title.

you either have a bad earth, or your alternator is not making enough power to run all the electrical systems on your vehicle.

Get a battery tester, start the car, put the tester on the terminals when engines idling then rev it, the volt reading should increase. if it doesnt you might need a new alternator. if it does probally dodgy earth
