I was a bit stumped until your last description. This is a sign that you
alternator is not charging, either because of worn brushes, bad regulator, or
even a loose belt. It can also be a bad ground somewhere, but I would start
checking the voltage coming out of your alternator, it should be at least 13,6
volts.
