Before freaking out, the alternator might be okay and it could just be the voltage regulator, this is connected to the front of the alternator via two screws and is easily removed without taking out the alternator. Once removed you can measure the length of the regulator poles (5cm is minimum)and determine if the regulator needs replacing. Next, go to an auto parts supply store and buy the Bosch equivalent. Mine was under 30$cdn and the labour saved by not removing the alternator was enormous. Hopes this helps.
