Once you get your 9000T started, if the battery light does not go out, you may have a problem with your alternator. Make sure your serpentine belt is okay and check your alternator for output. If your serpentine belt is bad or has come off check your crankshaft pulley. I had to replace mine a month ago. I ordered my replacement pulley and seal from Impex Distributors, 1-800-736-3550, for about $143 including the shipping.
