MY BATTERY LIGHT STAYS ON. ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY HAVE BEEN REPLACED. CAR WILL DRIVE BUT NOW IS DYING OUT OR WILL NOT START. BATTERY RE TESTED AND SHOWS A GOOD SIGN WHEN THEY TEST THE BATTERY. BATTERY LIGHT WAS NOT ON BUT ONCE NEW ALTERNATOR WAS PUT IN BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON NOW, ALSO WANTS TO DIE OUT NOW. SOMETIMES PUTTERS AS WELL
