That's your LOW tire pressure warning light in a 2002 Ford Windstar
Most cases the battery light comes on because the alternator isn't charging. The alternator may need replaced as well as the battery. It may be something more simple as a poor connection.
Battery light usually means alternator not charging. Most common solutions would be be a bad alternator, bad connection, or loose alternator belt.

I was looking at the 2002 Ford Windstar Owner Guide online at : ( www . motorcraft service . com ) no spaces , click on Owner Guides and on ( page 201 ) it explains about how fuse # 6 is used when parking the Windstar for longer periods of time so the battery doesn't run down
You will have to disconnect the battery for 10 seconds or more to reset the computer, then reconnect the battery and check if the light is off and remains off , if the light comes back on I would take to mechanic and have it scanned for trouble codes.
Bad Alternator or the Battery possibly is losing voltage. I replaced the alternator and serpentine belt before thinking it was the battery. The battery was only 16 months old. But it turned out to be the bad source.
Disconnect the battery for about an hour, then hook it back up. If it comes back on, something is wrong.
When the battery light is on. That means your charging system isn't working. You should have your system check. It will drain your battery.
There is no reset for the battery light. If the light is on there's a problem with the electrical system and once the problem is repaired the light will automatically go out.
