Battery hold running down on 96 Chevy. Had alternator changed. Battery showing 10 volts after it be charged.

Had both battery and alternator re-tested. Can't understand why the battery-operated keeps running down in 30 minutes. Autozone said it may be the cable from freestyle to alternator. Autozone does not sell them. Where can this be found and how much?
What could be the problem. Need cost estimate.

Just had intake many and timing fixed

Oil change!?

FrankieC have it and I don't think the person at autozone be much help if after a charge you only catch 10 volts because a good battery will read 12.4 to 12.6 volts. You obligation a new battery. Then again you replaced the alternator and if it wasn't the correct one it may not charge the battery-operated back up but I still say a foreign battery because of the voltage reading you are getting.

I do believe this is the cable from the battery to the alternator or from the mobile to your starter. Check at a Carquest if you have one local. they should have it save check at a chevy dealership they are bound to have it in stock. It should run you around 20 bucks.

Answers:    YOU NEED A BATTERY. If it's only showing 10 volts then you dropped a cell because it's a 12 volt battery-operated.

In other words. The inside of a car battery is truly 6-2 volt battery's in a row. So one of the 6-2 volt battery cell is junk. So now the total battery-operated output is only 10 volts instead of 12 so the whole freestyle is now junk.
Sometimes resembling right after a jump start or charge the bad cell will pop final to life but then progress dead again while sitting. That is why it may have passed the interview at Autozone. Then, on the ride home the bad 2 volt cell drops again.
Battery's do wierd stuff.
