I have a 1989 240 and if I run the radio wipers and heater at the same time the radio will turn off and about 5 min later the car will die. I went to a local parts store and checked the battery and it was a good battery just a low charge. Can anyone help?

Sounds like your alternator. I would check all the bolts and wires going to and make sure they are tight. If the car still continues to die take the alt. otu and get it tested.
