Battery light flashes and engine cuts out whilst driving.

Has to b the battery,if you changed the alternator then the batter isnt supplying any power to your sensors and computer. if your battery is weak the car might run at idle, but as soon as your drive your useing more draw. swap out a battery from a friend and you should b good.

Car won't start. Parked car, two hours later, got in turned key, all went dark. No dash lights. Did not even try to turn over. Battery was caroded, cleaned posts, no change. Fuses under hood all okay. ...

Hello,
Check that battery connection again real real good. If your batter was just "a little low" then there is plenty of juice to at least run your lights. For every single thing to be dead with 0 response you have a failed power feed. Check all them big power wires and their corresponding grounds. This is your problem. But just to double check the battery charger you used you may try another batter if you have one and see if the response is different. Also make sure that cable that was corroded is not corroded where it is clamps onto the power wire. Cut that clamp off and install a new cable clamp as needed.
Regards, Tony

Installed a new battery and altenador but battery keeps draining Is there fuses that we should be checking

Yes,but only one at a time,you need to remove the negative battery cable,and purchase a test light,they are cheap,and clip one end of the test light to the post on the batter(negative)where you took off the negative cable,and the tip of the test light to touch the cable(negative),and the test light will light up,then remove the fuse for the dome light,and then start pulling fuses,one at a time and putting them back in,if they do not cut the test light off,if it does turn the test light off,that fuse is the circuit that has the draw.Also unplug the alternator to make sure it is not the problem.
