Hi check that the leads on the battery and started motor are clean and free of corrosion. Get the battery an alternator load tested. You can do this with a multimeter.

" Get the battery an alternator load tested. You can do this with a multimeter. " No you cant . You need the proper tool that garages and fast fit / battery centres have that load the battery and show any weak cells , draws .
