I bought this used vehicle.

I have to jump start the vehicle after over two days' parking.

But it works within one day's parking.

I am wondering it is alternator or battery problem.

Hi there,

You can have the battery load tested to see if it is serviceable, when you have a known good battery test the charge rate of the alternator with a good fully charged battery you only need about 13.5 V
