I have replaced the battery, alternator, ign control module and it still won't hold a charge. What could I look at next?

Hello thanks for using 2CarPros.

It seems you have a blown fuse for alternator fuse 20 15A at engine compartment fuse/relay box or the wiring problem leading to the alternator.

Check our guide:

Perform the tests step by step at the files attached below and the wiring diagram specific to your vehicle.
