I had this exact same thing happen last year, and I think when my car was in the shop earlier that month, the mechanic disconnected the neg cable, which we all do when working on cars, then when his job was done, he placed the cable back on the post but then forgot to tighten it. This was the condition of the connection when I finally examined it. The weak connection led to the battery not charging and then the alternator diodes failing. I ended up getting a new battery and new alternator, an expensive lesson for me.
