MAYBE YOUR ALTERNATOR IS BAD.....OR IT'S PATH TO THE BATTERY IS BROKEN
CHECK YOUR FUSES AND FUSIBLE LINKS/ LOOSE/ BROKEN CONNECTIONS
DO YOU HAVE A VOLTMETER AND CAN TEST DC VOLTS ---AT THE BATTERY (BOTH TIMES) CAR RUNNING AND CAR NOT RUNNING?
YOU SHOULD HAVE ABOUT 12.5 VOLTS (OR THEREABOUTS) NOT RUNNING, WITH A GOOD CHARGED BATTERY
13.5--15 VOLTS RUNNING
THIS TEST MAY VERIFY WHETHER THE ALTERNATOR IS ALTERNATING!
KEEP US POSTED

Have the alternator tested. If it is good, check the fusible link between the alt and the battery.
