    Are you sure your battery is holding charge? Go get it tested at your local auto zone.

    New battery, new alt.
    My uncle said he went through 3 alts before his truck got to running
    So, new alt?

    Im not completely sure but I think alternators can get tested at autozone too. If its a new battery and new alt, then I think there a loose ground or bad connection some where.

    X2. Check any accessory wires, remote wires, battery wires, amps, capacitors, etc...

    Check the connection to the alternator. I had the one connection come loose.

    If not, check to see if your trunk light is going off... Etc
