So my problems first started when I drained my battery I have a pioneer 760 amp hooked up to a10 inch sub.I basically drained the battery while parked listening to music while car was shut off. Battery died bought new one and checked alternator which failed replaced that too everything was ok for a few days but interior lights are dim bat light and brk light came on and my tach is going crazy sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't phrase help doesn't affect how the car runs but I don't want to risk it thank you

It sounds like the battery isnt being charged, or is bad. I understand you just replaced it. A bad battery can cause the alternator to burn up. When you checked it, how did u verify it was good? You should have around 14v out of the positive stud on the back of the alternator.
