Post Lexus IS 250 ECU

this car it was in pretty good condition, driving the car the Battery light came on stop check battery, Suggested to replaced battery ok replace battery from that moment on there has been a series of problem with the car start with no signal light (intermittent work) then no charging the battery (replace alternator ) still did not charge the battery, driving the car then i notice the sport mode not working ( when going from atomistic to manual mode the numbers 1st 2nd 3rth not shown any more) , then just like that all possible light come on on the dashboard ( of Corse, check engine VCS etc. etc.) so i reset the ECU now i don't have power steering still not charging the battery it is hard to put in gear but once it is in gear drives nice ( but battery is not charging so stop driving the car) i just do not get it what the issue may be if there is any idea out there i like to try it

The loss of power steering indicates the battery may have had the polarity reversed which may be the same thing that took out the new alternator.

By the battery is a clear cover, inspect the fuseable link near the end marked 80A and get the alternator tested, replaced.
