Not likely but could be a DOA alternator. Have a parts store test your alternator, they do it for free. Also have them test your battery, could be you have a bad battery, not common but i've also seen DOA batteries that were prob dropped or mistreated during shipping.
After that, i'd double check to make sure all of your wiring was put back where it was supposed to go.
Good Luck

battery and alternator checked,both good.does the electrinic regulator need to be grounded?
