We should probably just sit and wait until OP decides he's willing to check for loose connections and any issues with the belt.

If the ECM reads 16 volts or more for 30 seconds the Battery Icon will come on. It will go out when the voltage drops below 16 volts.

If you don't do the basics, you waste a lot of time and effort.

Apparently if you come he tr e to get some info from someone who may have had a similar issue is a bad idea...I've been through all the normal checks, I'm not stupid! Was hoping someone with intelligence might be able to solve an odd issue.... system checks out. Belts good. Connections good. So not mr smart guy, got anymore ****ing bright ideas?
