Battery Light

I have a 98 F150 with the 4.6L V8. I noticed under heavy acceleration, the battery light is coming on (aroung 4000-4500 RPM).
And as soon as the transmission shifts and the RPMs drop off, the battery light turns off.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Your belt may be slipping a little, or you may have a loose connection.


Thanks for using FTE!
