Question type: Maintenance & Repair

At first, the belt went and so I replaced that, then my son drove it and the
compressor froze and has never started since. He drove it to my drive and
there it died. So I had to replace the compressor and then it did not even turn
over it was completely dead. The battery is only 2 months old. So then I went
to the started. One replaced it did turn over. I then got a computer from
Autozone and the code said the alternator and that is why I replaced it.  So
again it only turns but no ignition. So that is why I checked the plugs and the
fuel pump because there is no fire. But the fuel pump is pumping fuel. So all
the parts have been replaced as a process. I am now reaching. I have also
checked all the relays and the fuses. None were blown. There is not corresion
on the battery terminals.

Take it to a mechanic as you are just going to be throwing parts at it.
