Red face i need help please 2006

i'm new to this site and having some trouble figuring out how everything works here... so I have a 2006 accord coupe that i bought a few months ago. Today randomly my power windows decided not to go all the way down or all the way up like they're supposed to when i push all the way down or pull all the way up. Then i turned on my car and it almost did not start, i put on my rear defroster and my lights flickered and my air bag light came on. I noticed that every time i put my rear defroster on the lights flickered and air bag light came on. Then when i turned off my car the lights did not come on as they normally do when i turn the car off. I'm not sure if i should also mention that my ABS light has been on for about a month now. i'm freaking out and cannot get to a mechanic for a few days so any and all help/suggestions/input would be greatly appreciated ... thank you

Welcome to HAF - I've moved this to a place where you will get better/more answers.

Me, I'd inspect the the battery cable ends. Then, take it by almost any parts store and have them test the charging system.

I know i have said this before and almost hate to say it again but grounds, grounds, and grounds. Check as many of the body/engine/trans grounds as possible. A bad ground will cause sooooooo many strange little problems and symptoms.

Start at the battery as poorman suggested and have parts store test the charging system first and then move on to the ground connections
