I just recently replaced my alternator in my car because it was making loud noises. The car ran good all day, and while I was driving to Best Buy, the radio started fading out. I parked in the parking lot and turned the car off. Tried to turn the car on. Nothing (It tried to turn but not enough juice). Jumped the car, started working, but when I was driving out, the car started pulsing. I couldn't drive correctly with the lights, radio, anything electric on. Turned the lights off and the car stopped pulsing as much. Got home, turned the car off. Tried to turn it on again and no juice. Instead, it gave me a rapid clicking noise. WHAT IS WRONG?

Hi there, you need to check the alternator charge rate, check all battery connections are clean and tight and get the battery fully charged and load tested, start here.
