You are likely having issues with your charging system. Considering you have a new battery, your alternator may be to blame. Keep in mind, that the symptoms you are having are more commonly seen with battery failure. For this reason, start by making sure your battery connections are clean, dry, tight, and perfect. Secondly, have the alternator tested at a local parts store. If the alternator tests to be good, then you can measure the voltage available at the starter, and or remove it to have it tested as well.
