I think this is where I should post! I have had problems with the battery staying charged. Now the Battery light stays on. We have replaced

Battery--- Had Tested
Altenater-- Had tested
Starter
Ground Wires
Ignition Switch
Key and Tumbler
Battery Terminals
What are we missing? The lights still on and the battery dies after driving a while.

Battery cables. If not that, there is probably a drain in the system somewhere, which should provide hours of fun trying to find...

Battery Cables replaces still on We will start on thursday looking for a bad wire!

The fun begins...

You know, just becuase that battery was tested, doesn't mean it's necessarily going to hold a charge. I had to replace 2 'tested out ok' batteries in the past...

Yeah, The one that was in it tested bad. It was in it sense we had it and was bad, We took the one out of hubbys truck and its good , no issues in his truck with it. Just to make sure its fixable before we buy a new battery. Sadly were so broke right now and down a car paying for rides for my job is starting to suck! Its been a expensive lil thing sense we have baught it!
