driving home last afternoon when electrical things slowed and stopped working ..... just made it home
just now the car started after checking battery (12 volts ) and alternator showed 8 volts .....wiggled everything and checked for smells ...nothing .....now battery too low .....car will NOT make it to a shop as it needs battery to run or a charging alternator to get there ........... Ideas as to whom to call ?

Sounds like the alternator is shot. Car City probably has a towing service.

I think Jaime Hernandez (auto electrical shop) would make a service call. His shop is one half block south of the Carretera on calle San Jose in SAT, (the one way street south, between Coca Cola and SuperLake), east side of the street.
Sorry, don't have his phone number, but if I find it, I will post it.
He is of the same family with the tire shop just west of Tony's restaurant in SAT.
