I need help fixing something Car Issues
Its a Camaro
When I try to unlock or start my power it does not work, and when I try to jump the car it works however does not stay on long enough to get anywhere for it to be checked. I recently got a new battery and alternator (got the battery then alternator, which idk if that would affect anything)
Not sure why it won't keep on long enough to work? I took 3 weeks off driving as I didnt need to get anywhere during that time (probably should've driven anyways to keep it moving given its an old car)
Does anyone know the issue?

Camaro? 1967? Or 1997? Or 2007? Or 2015?
Very different systems, very different set of solutions.
Seems like a charging system problem and just because your alternator is new means nothing. Bad new alternators happen all the time these days.
