I REALLY REALLY NEED SOME HELP! I dont know much about cars so please dont get mad 
I will explain as good as i can.. Ok here it is, I was changing my 02 sensor (the one before the catalytic converter) and when we got the old one out the threads on the inside of the 02 housing were we all messed up and we couldnt get the new one in! Well now is when the problems start. I decided i was just gonna take it to the Mitsu dealer. So then replugged in the battery and was just gonna drive to the dealer without the 02 sensor in. Well when i start it up everything is cool until about 5 min later. All my lights are getting dim my power locks and windows dont work and nothing is blowing out for my heat and i turned it on full blast air nothing comes out!! I was told to buy a new alternator and i did. It is still doing the same stuff 
!! What can it be? 02 sensor not being in? Electrical problem somewhere? all fuses were ok. I have a 97 Eclipse GSX and im getting to hate it 
And like i said im a newbie when it comes to cars so any help is appreciated. Dont say like take it to the dealer or anything i know that but my car wont stay on long enough to get there. So any help is appreciated and I was not the one working on the car hehe... Thanks guys
