My car won't start with a new battery? - 1


I recently purchased a 2002 ford Taurus in September. A few days after getting the car it wouldn't start so I replaced the battery and it has been running fine for the past month and a half. Today I as I left work I turned on the car but as soon as I flipped the headlights on the whole thing died. We were able to get it started again with jumper cables and I made it home. I tried cranking it again once I was home and it was drained again. The battery is brand new and when I had it replaced the autozone guys checked my alternator and said it was running fine. The belt in the car is needing to be replaced could that have anything to do with the alternator not charging? If not what else could it be?
