SOURCE: replaced battery and alternater tested fine but
you say after you jump it it runs for a little while and then you have to jump it again you need to check the line from the alt. to the batery for a fusable link or inline fuse sounds like its not charging the battery
SOURCE: My car does not start, when I turn the key the
not alternator, maybe starter. I assume the engine does not turn? Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r6222268-engine_doesnt_crank_turn_over . These are generic instructions. If you get stuck or need specific instructions for your car, please get back to me with model, year and engine info.
SOURCE: Car wouldn't start. Autozone showed the battery
I WOULD STILL SUSPECT THE BATTERY, HAVE THE BATTERY & THE ALTERNATOR TESTED AT A RELIABLE AUTO REPAIR SHOP. SOME PEOPLE IN PARTS STORES MAY NOT FULLY UNDERSTAND HOW TO TEST A BATTERY.YOUR CAR MAY HAVE A MINOR BATTERY DRAIN. THAT IS TO SAY, POSSIBLY A HOOD OR TRUNK OR GLOVE COMPARTMENT LIGHT IS ON WHEN IT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE, OR A RELAY COULD BE STUCK ON. ANY OF THOSE CAN DRAIN A BATTERY OVER TIME.
