well i was drivin home today and then noticed my battery light was flashing when im at idle but when i get going it goes off what could this be? i have a 1995 f-250 7.3 powerstroke

i would check your alternator. if its only coming on at idle it may not be giveing enough charge. Ide also check the battery cables, and terminals, they may be loose and shake a bit when you are driveing. Most likely it is something simple like that.
