"The battery light on the dash
must be on for the alternator to work."
When you first turn the Key all the Warning Lights should go on (this checks to see if the Bulbs are working and you need a good Bulb in the Charging Light for the Alternator to charge properly).
With the Key in the run position all the wanring lights should be off unless there is a problem.
Some Members have said that when one of the Brushes was badly worn on the Voltage Regulator but the other one still made good contact the Charging Light never came on even though their Battery was not getting Charged.
