whenever i turn my rear defogger on it will work except for a couple lines and had the car for awhile now every time i used it the gauge will run low when i'm stopped but as soon as i accelerate it will go back up, but now it does the same and it kicks off alot sooner and the breaker gets really hot and the other stuff wont work until it cools. any clues besides a maybe a short that i can't seem to find and the same thing happens when i run the a/c the gauge drops down and all the stuff runs a little low until i accelerate. already been through three alternators in a couple years as well.

Check your battery cables for corrosion. Take them off the battery, and look for green/white powdery residue. Before disconnecting the battery, if you have the theft-lock feature on your radio enabled (the theft-lock LED on the front of the radio will be lit), turn it off before proceeding unless you have the code to unlock it. Your problem sounds like a bad connection, and that's what's causing the electrical problems.

the double positive cable at the battery is probally the culprit. Clean them extremely well problem should go away
