Check all the electrical connections from the battery terminals to the ground cables.. Best guess without a real proper diagnostic is wiring issue loose cable or corrode ground cable..Begin at the battery 12.6 volts make sure the serpentine belt is enacted too..and work along the wiring.. alternator output at battery 13.4 -14.8 engine idling. Have it scanned for codes after its running again.
