That doesn't necessarily mean that you have the same problem I did. I believe a bad fusible link or ground could also cause a charging problem even with a good alternator but lets assume it is the same.
It's the light that look like a battery. Easy to diagnose this one.
- Do you have an instrument cluster attached?
- Does the light come on when you first turn the key?
- If not, the bulb inside could be out/gone and is likely the problem
- If it does, does it go out after the engine is started?
- If not, why haven't you noticed
