I am having problems with my alternator keeping my battery charged. I have had the alternator checked at serval auto part stores and they all say it's good. I have changed the voltage regulator, Changed starter and starter solenoid. Also I just bought the battery in December brand new. :Cry:

Has the battery been tested? Might be your problem also could be bad wires from the terminal posts I have seen a couple of vehicles with corroded wiring causing this kind of issue.

The only other thing I can add is that there could be a drain on the battery. A glove box light on, etc. If the battery tests out ok, take a look at night and maybe pull some fuses.

Good hunting and let us know. :)
