Light is never on when starting. Not sure if the alternator is the problem.
 
battery is just used to start the car then the alternator is used to keep it going
 
it could be a loose connection, you usually can get it checked out for not a lot at most car shops
 
you need a volt meter and hook it up to the battery.it should read 13.4 to 14.5 volts.if it does not read these numbers,you have a bad alternator. 99 percent of the time for this car is a bad alternator when the battery light come on.
