Once, when my alternator went out. I replaced it and the battery light stayed on, dim, but on. The reason for me was a bad diode in the alternator allowing return voltage to cause the light to come on. I took it out and put in another one and all was good. Now I run a 3G alternator and all is awesome. I would go back to where you got the alternator and try another one, its only time and shouldn't cost a dime.

The fusible link is a wire coming from the starter solenoid on the driver side fender. It's going to have a black rubber piece on the wire, inside that is where the link will pop. If you can pull on he rubber and it stretches then the link is bad.

battery light dim but still on

ok, I replaced the alternator this is #3 and battery light is on but dim. I can see a red thin wire that might be the fuseable link but there is no part number. Are there any links under dash board or in the engine compartment.
