I have a 91 q45 and the airbag light came on and stays on, the brake light is the same and the anti lock light is also on, any ideas what would cause all these lights to come on overnight, and my radio quit working. I checked all fuse and they are all good.Please help!!Thanks Mike

The ABS and brake light sounds like a low battery or bad alternator. Check your battery with a volt meter... should be 12V car off, about 14V at idle.

I'll vote for old, out-of-spec battery sucking the life out of your new alternator. Not good. Try an Optima Red Top.
