The alternator needs to be replaced because the car ignition system is running on your battery and the alternator is not charing it or supply dc power to run the car. If the battery is that dead you might have to replace the battery too but try the alternater first

My tcs came on while driving . Then my car died on me last night electrical wise died .

Hello. It seems your car's TCS Traction Control System is malfunctioning; causing the torque converter to stay 'engaged' to the engine. This will stop the engine from running when your car is in any drive gear. I don't know what your car's electrical problem is. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Car was making a ticking noise and would often Require 3 Rpms to accelerate any further. I figured it was due to carbon deposits in the injectors. I added Lucas Fuel Treatment, filled up the other 1/2

if you lost all power to your car, even electrical...it sounds like your starter may have went. If it were a fuel pump you would still have electricity and a crank, but the car just wouldn't turn over because it's not getting any fuel.

96 mustang dies electrically while driving

did you change your battery or have a load test performed on it,it could be bad.
Have your mechanic change the wire harness for the alternator at the plug,they can burn out on the inside and look good on the outside,They are black 10 guage with orange stripe,and smaller guage plug wires.This part canbe purchased from the parts store, or dealer.

Dies after driving for 10 minutes

I think I'd have to gamble on a new relay, and clean up contacts in those sockets with electrical cleaner, then add dielectric grease before plugging in new one. Do the pump first obviously.
