theres a plug that goes onto the side of the alternator, if its not plugged in properly it will illuminate the battery light!!

id also just make doubly sure that youre getting 14v to the battery, better than getting stranded somewhere!!

I have this and yet my battery is still being charged by the alternator.

Took it to a guy who for the last 43 years has done nothing but rebuild alternators and starters and he teated it all and looked at it.
The alternator is at fault and is goosed but yet it is still charging the batter.

It smells bad and it is the diode inside thats gone and its throwing on the battery light. He says the brushes might be on there way out also.

New alternator for me
