Re: 92 century

Check the terminals to the battery and the one on the back of the alternator. If the alternator connection is bad the light will stay on. Also if the terminals or the connections are corroded then the same thing will happen. If you check them and find they are corroded clean them or replace them and the problem should go away.

Have the alternator checked again. Also check to make sure the belt is not slipping. They don't have to squeal to slip enough to prevent proper charging of the battery by the alternator. Obviously there is a problem somewhere.
