are you able to check the voltage while the light is on? should be in the mid 13 volt range. are you running any accessories that draw a lot of voltage?

Do you mean check the battery while it's running and the battery should maintain 13.v? I am not running any accessories but i did put in a new ignition could that cause it?

Found it

I tested it while it was running the voltage was 16v that told me It was the (voltage regulator rectifier) its on order now thanks for the tip I would have cooked my battery.
