the battery light comes on when the alternator is not charging, right? i guess you did not tighten the battery connections enough. the battery connections have to be tight. or , battery is defective. or, it is the alternator. or, the alternator belt is slipping.

turned out to be a crapped out alternator which also killed my battery.... changed both and now it runs fine....
