Electrical problem
1993 Saturn SL2 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic exempt miles

I have been having problems with my Saturn for a long time and nobody can figure out what the problem is. I have replaced the battery and the alternator and it will not charge the battery. After driving for about 20 minutes the battery goes dead. What do I need to do to fix this problem? Thank You, Darla

First thing I would check is if all the connections are tight to ur altertnator fuse link ur connector is plugged in all the way to the alternator etc. Then I would check and see if ur fuse link link was good going to ur starter was good. It runs from ur starter to ur alternator take it off and use a ohm metter and make sure it reads 2ohms or less if it doesnt it will have to be replaced. They go bad sometimes when the old alternator goes bad. Let me know what u find and the next step will be to check the wires going to ur connector of the alternator.
