Why would an a New ReManufacturered Alternator Drain New Car Battery?

It won't. Look for a light that is on or a stuck relay. Also a dead cell in the battery will cause it to run down overnight.

It can, though it is unlikely -- the alternator and the voltage regulator would both have to be faulty. A faulty alternator will not charge a battery, though, so it may seem normal until the charge put into the battery at the store runs out.

Your 1997 ford ranger battery light is low and the battery keeps dying is it the alternator?
Battery light usually means alternator not charging. Most common solutions would be be a bad alternator, bad connection, or loose alternator belt. If the battery and alt test ok than check the connections to the alternator and battery. You may also have a battery drain (something that is staying on and killing the battery)
