Hi, I have installed a new altenator and when I start the battery light gose off but about 30 seconds later comes on and stays on. I had the alternator and battery checked and it is giving an output of 14v and the battery checked good as well. some times if I turn the engine off and start up again the light will stay off. I have cleaned the battery terminals and that did not help.
Can you please help me with this problem.
Thanks, Allan.
