There are too many variables here to give a direct answer, but i would start by making sure the battery is not bad. After that you would use a volt meter to see if the Alternator is supplying 14V or more. If it is not then you need to find out why which is where things get involved.

How do you hook up a ford external voltage regulator?
Here is the proper hookup Voltage regulator teminal (I) goes to key switch Acc or Coil Risistor Voltage regulator teminal (A) goes to Alternator Battery Connection Voltage regulator teminal (S) goes to Alternator Stator Connection Voltage regulator teminal (F) goes to Alternator Field Connection Below is Incorrect. Hope this Helps. Ok this is the info that I have so far: (12VDC SYSTEM NEG GROUND) There should be multiple letters on the voltage regulator itself. The F goes onto the field post on the positive side of the alternator. The I goes to a fused + 12vdc (fuse panel) The A ? The S ? I think this goes to the switched "on" ignition point of the key. Any other valuable hints? F terminal on the regulator connects to the field connection on the alt. S terminal on regulator connects to the stator connection on alt. A terminal on regulator connects to the battery +( Plus) or positive terminal. (senses voltage of battery) I terminal on the regulator connects to the ignition switch. (turns regulator off & on) Caution do not connect I to spark coil +(positive) terminal,: may cause engine not to turn off.

What causes the battery to drain on a 2000 mitsubishi galant after five minutes when the car is shut off no alarm?
Bad battery? Bad Voltage regulator Disconnect the - battery terminal Install a test lamp between the - battery terminal and - battery cable--if light lights there is an extreme parasitic load on battery Remove 1 fuse at a time from the fuse block until the light goes out. This will at least tell you which circuit needs further investigation
