My brand new battery keeps on dying. I have replaced my alternator, I replaced the solinoid on the fire wall which I may have mixed the wiring but i am not sure. I have replaced the negative and possitive wires coming from the battery and when my car is running my battery slowly loses power. Can you send me pictures of the correct wiring for the solinoid on the fire wall?

First thing is checxk belt tension and condition or both tensioner and belt, check the in car fuse and underhood fuse, On one side of the solinoid, you want (+) pos battery cable, two fuse links, which you should test, on the other side the starter cablen and on top the blue and red wire...
