I doubt it is the belt because if the belt is slipping you should hear it.
The alternator could be about to crash and not charging at lower speeds.
You would check alternator output to find out.
The battery and brake warning lights are on the same circuit.

So where all 3 Alternators returned & tested?

Do you have wiring diagrams out ready to go
& a volt meter to start your testing?

Hello i have 2001 Mitsubishi montoero sport to day took the battery out and now when i try to start it, it runs for a second or two then goes off

disconnect the battery again, with it disconnected press hold the brake pedal for 30 seconds, leave the battery disconnected for 30 minutes. reconnect battery, turn key from off to on and wait 2 minutes, start the vehicle (don't touch the gas or brake for 5 minutes) this is what I did on my friends montero and it started right up and ran fine, only thing I could figure is that I caused the computer to reset and recalibrate itself, but i'm not real sure. worked for him maybe it will work for you... good luck

Reset check engine light

I you have fixed the problem that set the check engine light in the first place, you can disconnect the battery for 1-2 minutes and the light will go out. If you do this but haven't fixed the problem the light will remain on or will come back on shortly after you start the engine and drive. If you haven't fixed the problem, I highly recommend getting the vehicle scanned for codes and post the codes here. we can help you from there.
