when the ignition is turned
on, and the engine is not
running, as a check to
show it is working. Then it
should go out when the

If the light stays on, or comes on while driving, there may be a problem with the electrical charging system.
Have it checked by your dealer/retailer. Driving while this light is on could drain the battery.
