Ericka1 hold up on the alternator! You have a new battery in the car, now what's going on? When u turn the key on, does your engine turn over (crank)? The alternator charges the battery when the car is running, if u have a new battery in the car, it should start, even if the alternator is bad. The alternator would cause the battery to lose it's charge if it is bad. So, 1st thing to check (if car won't start), is there spark at the spark plugs, and is fuel getting to the spark plugs. You must have both for the car to start and run. Check that out 1st, and provide info, we can take it from there.

Alternator not charging the battery, keeps stalling and/or not starting

Your battery is discharging because you have a circuit drawing power when ignition is off. You have to identify the line by hooking up an ammeter to the battery and with the ignition switch off, start removing fuses till the draw goes down. Once you locate the offending circuit, you need to check all of the wiring and items on that load.

93 k1500 alternator won't charge over 13.8 goes

I need more info for your problem. Never should an alternator charge over 13.8 and they will charge less depending on demand. As long as the battery voltage is above 11.5 volts the car is probably within min operating specifications.

I have an 93 gmc yukon brand new starter and battery wont start or even click

id make sure the fuses and relays didn't pop for the starter while installing as if it was intstalled wit the battery still connected it could have arched it causing them to blow. then id make sure the battery was good and so was the alternator first thing. second, make sure all ur connections are good ie battery ground as well as wires on the starters solinoid.

93 won t start, clicking when i try to start... it started after sitting for a few days than now it won t don t know if its my starter battery or alternator

I would change all three. alittle expensive, but on this old of a vehicle I would not waste time and trouble. if this doesnt work then maybe some ignition problems. But i would guess that battery, starter, alternator, should do the trick
