Test that its charging the battery, start it up then use a volt meter to see if its charging, if it is then is should show around 13.5 to 14.5 volts and when ignition is off after about 15 mins should drop to about 12 volts

i can tell you exactley what it is as i had this same problem. It will be the wire between the alternator and starter motor has broken. 99.99% sure of it.
