Try a new alternator. You can tell if the alternator is working by starting the vehicle and disconnecting the battery. If the truck dies it is the alternator if it continues to run then take it to a mechanic.

The battery light came on because the alternator is no longer providing amperage or voltage to the battery or the rest of the electrical systems in the car. I'll also advise you what else is "shaky". The battery. In the daytime if the battery is in just fair shape, the car shouldn't quit within 3 minutes of the battery light coming on. For battery testing purposes it should be fully charges on an automatic self leveling battery charger @ 2 amps till the green light comes on the charger. Wait at least 12 hours and take a voltage reading of the battery all by its self. It should test above 12.35 volts. You should have a load test done on the battery to check the reserve capacity. To test the alternator the engine must be running. Clip the volt meter to the battery. It should now read 13.5 - 14.0 volts. If the meter reads below 13.5 volts, the alternator is defective.

Usually on older vehicle those lights come on vehicle its the alternator that is going out. Take vehicle to shop or if you might have a digital multi meter test alternator. Make sure atleast putting out 14 volts or more. if less replace alternator.
