It was cranking very slowly and the lights on the dashboard were flashing. and then the cranking sound and the lights would fade and eventually phase out. all this would happen in about 1-5 sec. but when I changed the battery everything cranked fine, but the car just kept dying. I've never had any problems like this before. Could it be the battery? maybe it doesn't have enough amps?

get a multimeter and check the alt!!!
