It could be a lot of things. Have you had the codes read. Have you checked the plug, cables, alternator. Why did you change the battery? Could be the alternator not charging the battery. I would start at reading the codes because that will give you clue to what area to start troubleshooting.

What is your year make and model. That is always needed to assist you with your issues.
