First of all, use proper grammar when you type. It makes it easier for others to help you. Have you checked for blown fuses? If the battery trouble light came on, it can still be your battery. Letting it sit for a while can help restore a charge to help crank the motor. However, this can give you a false sense of security. It doesn't matter if you have "full Power" options, batteries age and are exposed to extreme weather conditions, and the hot extreme conditions of sitting next to your hot motor. It sounds like you have one or two dead cells in your battery. If you don't live in California, I strongly recommend that you can take your car to O'reily Auto Parts and have them test your battery for free. Otherwise take it to your mechanic.

Well with this turned out to be was the alternator. My neighbor told me to charge back up my battery which we did I was able to start my car off the battery power I took off the positive terminal instantly car shut off to answer my own question alternator. * * * So for anybody who wants to know how to test an alternator or battery have car running and disconnect the positive terminal and if the engine shuts off immediately it is your alternator.
