 Does your battery indicator light come on when turning car off? 
		
		
		Just curious, if your battery light (in the same cluster as the oil temp/oil pressure) come on as the car is turning off. 
	i.e. once the ignition is switched off, as the engine is shutting down, does the light come on?  | 
		
 Its the Alternator light.  
	I’d check the output condition of the battery, connections and it’s age. Might be that it’s time to replace it if over 4 yrs. old. With engine running use a multimeter and reading should be better or close to 14v. With engine off anything less than 12.5 would indicate the battery is not able hold a charge. Worse case is when engine is running, the alternator andd/ot regulator is failing or combo of all three, including the battery.  | 
		
 If the light stays on with the key off, the alt has a bad diode or 3.

 Sorry..to clarify.. 
	I was referring to the quick second where the light comes on as the car is turning off. https://youtu.be/Tc53duOahtM  | 
		
 Mine does this too, seems normal 
	 | 
		
 Mine also flashes on as I turn off the engine, maybe less than a second. Alternator is new so I assume it is normal.

 Thank you!
