I changed my alternator over today, and everything seems fine, except the charge light in the dash appears when the car is completely off. Once the car is running it's off and everything is fine....
Any ideas why this is happening?
Charge light appears when car is turned off
Re: Charge light appears when car is turned off
For the light to be illuminated, it means there must be power going to it.
The first question this makes me ask is, have you hooked it up correctly?
Is the alternator the same as the one that came out of it?

Sweet.
So you kept having the problem after Saturday (with low volts, non starting)?
