Battery light

Came on intermittently other day, got it home then did not start. Charged for a bit, it started on the charger then off the charger a few times I assumed out was the alternator just replaced it. Battery light now on continually, hope i didn't destroy two batteries driving out for 20 mom after light first illuminated, they already to be only one year old.
in addition to the ABS light now and the brakes feel unboosted? Hopefully fuses popped?, sorry typing on my phone

False alarm, pulled it out out of he driveway and brakes were very touchy at ft and then they leveled out and and all the display items turned off and is fine now.

Yeah an oil burner, 7.3L. SO one less thing to cross off the list for now, new alternator and am thinking about finding somebody to rebuild mine, possibly for a few more amps if possible to have a"spare". Now to get to this fuel bowl rebuild and try and get a head unit in place because this debacle made me realize there is no electrical gauge other than the battery light, really like to incorporate some OBD2 monitoring stat!!

I did take little time turning my 10 footer into a 5 footer with some cleaner wax, some cut and buff
