What could be the problem if i replaced altenator and battery but it still wont hold a charge
What is your question?
I've replaced my alternator first then shortly after my battery, and im on my 3rd battery with in 3 months now. My vehicle shows battery charge issue. I've had the battery checked before I put it inanx andand then they go bad but the last battery I bought it happened over a couplehours. I've went through looking for a drain by testing fuses and all seemed OK. It would throw a clicking noise previously when attempting to turn it over, but not sure if it is so dead it won't push the starter. I ve had the alternator tested again thinking a faulty alternator, but the guys at o rieleys said my battery was good, alternator was good' and the starter was good so im told. What other issues could I begin to look in to. How do I know if it's a starter issue, parasitic drain, relay, fuse or any of those. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, if you have a warning light indicating lack of charging, then there is indeed a lack of charging. It could be that you have a faulty alternator. It could be that there is a wiring connector or wiring issue at the alternator. The key is - do you have the warning light illuminated?
With no warning light, it's harder to figure out what's going on. But if it's on, it's telling you that there is no charging occurring.
You'll need to have some hands on testing performed. I can't explain to you how to do it here; you'll need to obtain testing equipment and shop manual information, or seek guidance at a shop near you.
