could be the alternator maybe - battery light could be coming on because the alternator might not be charging the battery? how longs it been happening?

not really sure tbh mate - check the obvious like make sure the belt/pulley is spinning when engine is running, other than that i cant think of a way other than try a different one. Just another thought, have you checked the fuse for the full beam?
