alternator my friend, if the car isn't charging even on idle/driving then it's time to replace it.

try and get a reconditioned one with a warranty as opposed to one from the wreckers in unknown condition.

oh and check your alternator belt isn't loose or anything

But it doesn't show the battery sign on the cluster.....

anyway, can i put a GSI B18B alternator on mine?

had the same issue, light never came on. I don't know if a GSI one would fit though.

measure the output voltage of the alternator with a multimeter while the engine running

the voltage will help you determine if its the battery or alternator

Also check the relay/fuse and check the battery loom
