Angry electrical probelms with 96 sohc dodge neon

Ok, just started happening 2 days ago, i can drive my car but when i hit the gas or brakes, by gauges start to turn on and off, my radar detector turns on and off, and my radio turns on and off.. all at the same time.. No i know i've had this problem before, just sadly it was so long ago that i cant even remember what i did to fix it. (FYI i have subs in my neon)

my ideas,

lose ground connection from the battery
alternator going bad..


but if you know what the problem probably is, please leave comments BELOW

THANKS

it was a bad ground going to my battery, the ground that went to the starter, i ended up relocating it to my exhaust manifold about 2 years ago, and the wire was fried up by the battery post. so i just cut off the tip of the wire, and cut off the rubber around it. and re-attached it to the battery post. now everything works properly again.
