    Hey Bill, I'm definitely not an expert on automotive repairs but I believe I read recently about a website that specializes in selling automotive electrical components. I'm sure you could find a company like that near you. They could probably advise you as to what the issue is as well as provide any parts necessary to fix it. http://www.lonsdaleautoelectrical.com.au...

On this issue i suggest you to get the battery and its connections checked.
Either battery is got weak or the problem is related to loose battery connections.Some times battery connectors gets dirty and cause no connection issue.So disconnect battery terminals,clean them and reconnect and check ,if that is helping.
Also if the battery is got very old,then try with new battery.

Measure the voltage at the battery with engine running, will be 14 volts, if it is still 12 check the wire at the back of the alternator and see if it is at 12 volts or 14.
you may have a bad alternator, advance auto parts and autozone will check it for free.

Battery light on alternator wasn't charging above 12 volts checked at battery. Replaced alternator, then battery light still on.

Get a different alternator. 13.5 volts is too low. It needs to be 14 to 14.5 volts. The other battery is over charged.

2011 Toyota Avensis Strata Diesel Battery Light staying on.What causes this?

Battery light is (more accurately) also named charging light or generator light.
One side of the light is connected to the battery via the ignition switch and the other is connected to the alternator. When the ignition is switched on, one side of the light is at battery voltage and the other side at 0 volts and so the light illuminates but when the engine starts and the alternator produces a full output both sides of the light is at the same voltage and so no current flows and the light is extinguished.

Assuming there are no wiring or connection problems your alternator isn't producing a charge. Perhaps you didn't need a new battery...

Reset battery light

The battery light is on to warn the driver that the alternator is not charging the battery. If the light is still on you need to check the output of the alternator. It may still not be charging the battery.

Battery light on and break light on

Break light is no joke have the brake system checked for internal and external leaks . If none are found then itspossibly the brake hand / foot switch.

Battery lite could be incorrect battery or alternator is defective or the wiring behind alternator is corroded and lastly voltage regulator may be defective.

Engine light and battery light

No, and a new battery may not cure the battery light being on. A low or no charge condition will turn the red battery light on, a bad battery will not. A low charge condition could have turn the check engine light on. I would have it checked before I would start replacing parts.
