Asked on October 4, 2012

The battery icon light on the dash blinks on intermitantly while driving.

The alternator needed to be replaced on my 2007 Ford F-150. However after replacing the alternator twice,nd also installing a new battery, the "idiot light", battery icon on the dash still blinks on for short periods while driving. The voltage gauge on the dash shows that the alternator is charging, and the truck has been starting and running fine. Is there a way to reset the battery icon light?
