Battery light

Started my car tonight and the battery light came on. I still have power steering and made the 15mile drive home without any problems.. Guess I'll pull the battery in the morning and have it checked.. If it checks out good I'll have to take the car to the dealership and see what they find

No need to pull it. Just drive to an auto zone type store and have them load check it in the car. Usually no charge for the check. Some places can also check the alt. motor on.
