I have a brilliant answer.
You should not have bought the lousy item in the 1st place.
Bung a bit of sticky tape over the offending warning light, and sell it quick.

Perhaps the engine is not ticking over quite fast enough. Try adjusting the idle to about 1200 rpm.

Could be that the alternator needs servicing now. Check it out or you'll end up with a flat battery soon.
