Open your hood and look in the big fuse box next to the battery. Check to make sure the big white 120A fuse link is not blown. Sometimes when your alt dies it blows that fuse link. If that is not replaced the new alt will not charge the battery.

doesnt matter how old a battery is. if it is completely drained too long it is worthless (except a deep cycle).
