Fistly check the battery by discharge test and by electronic tester if okay then carry out a volt drop test on the system with battery in the vehicle to see if anythings draining it.also check main engine earth points and battery to chasis earths.

two batterys fitted, make sure they are dis connected before any test is done on them, otherwise results will be wrong, make sure all the main power fuses are ok, even the ones on the positive terminal, make sure a good alternator brand is fitted
