Someone must know the answer.

 A while back the battery light came on on my 3.5v8 Disco, since then it has stayed on. I was quite expecting to come out one day to a flat battery
 but several weeks down the line, the battery is fine.

 I have ckecked and the alternator is putting out the correct voltage, Someone suggested a new regulator pack, which I have fitted, but it has made no difference and still the red light is on all the time.

My question. What else could it be, possibley a diode pack, are these available as replacements or is a new alternator my only escape.

 Is the alternator charging the battery and if so is it doing it at the right rate, have known lights to come on when over charging

stevepage3:
Yes the battery is being charged and my alternator tester is showing the correct voltage going in.

Does the wee wire in the back of the alterantor not control the battery light in the dash??? Could it be broken?????
