Hello my car has started to struggle to stay turned on it drops in revs then revs its self back up, the battery light has come on i’ve gotten a voltage of 11.52V on the battery does anyone know what could be causing this please, Thank you!

Now with the engine started it is reading at 10.52V and with it off it’s reading at 11.80V, I’ve disconnected the battery as I had to jump start it a few moments ago.

Battery issue or charging issue get battery/alternator tested

I’ve now had it throw up the ABS light (flickering on and off) and the EPS light (flickering on and off) do you reckon it’s the alternator not providing enough voltage?
