The car seems like it doesnt want to start, I had the alternator checked and put in a new battery, it is still the same. When I took the car to the auto store to have it checked they did so while it was running, they said I only had 2.6 amps and I should have 120, whatever that meant. I changed the battery and it still does the same, if I turn it off and try to start it again its hard if not impossible. What could be causing this. Tyvm

When u put the new battery in did it start right up?When they said u only have 2.6 amps while running instead of 120 amps I belive they were talking about ur alternator if that is not putting out enough to keep ur battery charged then the car wont start. Do u have a volt meter?Let me know.
