car just dies - tippmann - 11-16-2012

its been awhile since i last posted.. my 2003 just dies when slowing down on an off ramp or from slowing down from like 100km ..and i have to boost it most times just to start it...i put a volt meter on the batter while it hasnt been started for a few days and the battery is still at 12 volts...any ideas what it could be?

thanks

check the Alt, boost it get her going, pull the neg terminal if it does its the alt.
also check the 3 wire connector on the alt see if its still good
