I have a 1996 Nissan Maxima GLE. Brand new alternator and battery. I haven't start it for like 3 weeks, because I was low on gas and it would of ran out. I was waiting until this Friday since payday. My battery is completely dead, so before I go to Auto Zone and get it charged I had some questions. (Most workers at my local Auto Zone don't know much)

When I got my alternator changed at my friends shop, they did a charging system test and no problems.

Why would my battery be dead if its new along with the alternator? It shouldn't be if it hasn't been started in a few weeks.

My roommate told me it's probably a grounding problem. How much would that cost to be repaired?(estimate)

I have no idea what is going on, but it is annoying once I need to go somewhere, I can't. Please help, thanks!
