Found this in the stickies...hope this might help.

"ALT fuse has blown. It is located under the hood in the fuse box near the battery. It can alos mean the voltage has dropped under 10v. In most cases this means your Alternator is dead/shorted out. Replace the fuse when you replace the alternator." Posted by Kevlo911

Your alternator is on it's way out. Just replace it before the car leaves you stranded someplace.
