But if i turn on the headlights the interior dims and the headlights make a click click click sound. the ignition just clicks if i try to turn it over. Had AAA jump it today and it was ok ran it for 45 min. came out to the car to find the battery light on parking brake light on nad when i drove it arround he block my speedometer gas and rpm all jumped all over the place.

Probably the battery. Could also be corrosion on the battery terminals.

Have the alternator checked out also, in some cases new battey will result in same thing now with a bad alternator. Any place you would get a battery will be able to check it for you
