Default Car Shut Down!!!...Help!!!

My friend just purchased a 92' SC4 like mine and it shut down on him today. He had mentioned earlier that his battery light kept flashing on and off. Could this be his alternator? Thanks a lot.....and yes, I have told him about this site and that he should join.....Thanks for the info!

He just bought car on last Thursday....He hasn't replaced it since then, and I don't think he knows when it was replaced last.

the best way is to swap a battery in it and take it to the closest kragen for a free check up.
