before you do anything you should have your battery and charging system checked. capacitive resistance and load test. charging voltage and max amp test. (load the alternator to the max amperage output at 2000 rpm. see if it matches the alt rated output)

check your battery connections and grounds. you may have to wait and try to check the battery and charging system when you have the light come back on but something should show up on the loaded tests
