MY car battery light is still on after the alternator and the battery has been changed. The battery cables are clean and well attached. Now what?

Battery light usually means alternator not charging. Most common solutions would be be a bad alternator, bad connection, or loose alternator belt. A replacement alternator can be bad. If it is ok than most likely a poor connection to the alternator.
