I have a truck and it died on me. I changed the battery and it was fine for a day but then died on me again. I assumed it was the alternator. I removed the old one, had it tested and it failed. I bought a new one, put it in, jump started it and same thing

Do a better job on the question. Have your charging system checked and check fusible links at relay by battery
