Default 1991 Civic SI B18 Swap Repeated Battery Light Flash

Not extremely experienced with working on cars but my car is running, that battery light just randomly started doing this. It will now do it every time i turn on my car and dont have the gas pressed, my stereo is not working as well. It is a brand new alternator, i know that doesnt mean it could not be bad but should i get it tested? Is it more likely to be a short or bad ground somewhere? I have checked most of my grounds, i couldve easily missed some but am not sure. Please help if possible, if any further information is required let me know!

If its new I would suspect its the problem. Sounds like a bad voltage regulator, I would try to exchange it while you still can.

Your stereo not working is likely another issue, start by checking all the fuses.

If you want more info on checking the charging system watch this.
