Best Answer

When the battery light stays on or flickers. If you have a voltmeter, you can check voltage at the battery. With car off, should read 12 volts. Running, it should be 13 or 14 volts, unless there's a problem with wiring between the alternator and battery. You can check voltage between big wire, usually red, from back of alternator and frame while running, but watch out for belt, alternator fan blades, other moving parts.
