Battery, Brake an 2002 Accord V6 3.0 with 60K miles. Replaced Alternator, drove 25 miles, lights started to come on again. Replaced Battery, lights on again after under 10 miles. FYI these lights come on in unison and are intermittent. They never stay on for more than a few seconds. What else could the problem be?

There is more than likely a short in the main plug for the alternator, if this is an aftermarket alternator it may also be at fault, some aftermarket alternator may have problem with the voltage regulator which will cause power to fluctuate and cause lights to come on and off. First check plugs on alternator for short and also check and make sure battery terminal are tighten properly. Good luck and contact if you need more help

Put in a new alternator ran my 94 honda accord for about 1/2 hour then drove 1mile and the car died

Unfortunately your alternator is probably not good make sure that the connections on the alternator or Skype make sure the connection on the batterie are tight and clean but you may have just put in a rebuilt alternator that didn't get rebuilt correctly it's probably bad

You will need to see if the alternator is charging. If you have a Volt meter put it on the battery cables with the car running. It should read about 14 volts. If it is reading correctly then check your battery cables. It is possible for a loose connection or a corroded cable.

the alternator can be tested by most auto parts stores (usually for free) ... you could have a blown fusable link in the heavy wire that goes from the alternator to the battery .. they can test that by hooking up directly to the alternator output ..if its ok there but not at the battery then maybe a blown fusable link or bad connector .. even if the alternator is working, it still wont charge the battery if the connection is broken between the two .. you can also check the ground wire between the engine and frame (neg side of battery) ..

Dead battery or something more?

Low battery voltage light battery won't hold charge 2002 S60

Yup, time for a new alternator. Most models have the regulator built into the alternator, so it makes it a little bit more expensive - but it will resolve your problems. If you are driving at night with a load on your charging system (lights and radio on), you will probably notice you have dim headlights. If you don't change it soon, you'll end up having to replace your battery too.
