recently my car battery died so i bought a new one but it seems as if the same issues are arising again! My rpm fluctuates under 1 when im idle and sometimes when i speed up my car speed guage isnt showing me the correct speed it fluctuates as well then the abs comes on and off sometimes u hear a clicking from the engine and then it stops. What might be the cause i asked a friend of mines and he said the alternator. Any other idea?
An alternator w/ damaged rectifier will put out enough voltage to charge the battery, but may cause problems w/ electronics. You need to have a alternator test performed by a good auto electrical shop.
Another possibility is a bad battery connection either positive or negative. Also check primary ground connections to engine and body frame from battery.
good luck

Remove the alternator yourself and take to an electrical shop for a rebuild. Cost should be <$100 to replace rectifier and voltage regulator. You shouldn't need any other parts such as bearings, rotor, field, etc.
