The other night I was out driving around, and my battery light popped on. The car ran for about 15 more minutes, and then it died. I towed it to my house, and changed the alternator. The light is still on and the battery is still not getting a charge from the alt. I am pretty frusterated, because it wold be nice to have my car for the long weekend. Any advice on what it could be please help thanks.
