Re: HELP! Battery Light on - Battery is good

The usual reason that the battery light comes on has to do with the alternator not producing current. If you continue to run the vehicle, the battery will drain and probably stop on you. It could indicate a loose belt that is not allowing the alternator to turn but it could also indicate the alternator has gone bad. Don't drive it too much especially after dark since the headlights will drain the battery rapidly. Have it checked asap.
