Re: Alternater or battery?

It sounds like your alternator is fried. If it wasn't the alternator after you had the car jumped it would have recharged the battery while it was running and it would have been fine. Was it running like it should after it was jumped? What i mean by that is was it running hot, making any weird noises, or anything like that?

Autozone will test the battery and alternator for free, fyi. Take advantage of it.
