Electrical problem
1999 Toyota Rav4 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 225K miles

I had the alternator replaced, charged battery to full capacity. Everything was working, then 1 day later, the vehicle is dead again. When I try to start, there is nothing.

Could it be a bad alternator, or what can I look for?
