Got a problem with the Nissan....

Figured this was the best place to post, since it's not
a Honda, but, recently, my Nissan's battery light has
come on, and stayed on, for a few minutes after
starting the car. Not always, but a few times lately. The e-brake light stays on also,
but both go off after about ten miles. Is my alternator dying?
Thanks for any replies.
EDIT: The battery's only 4-5 months old. Also, will these, (88-91): Honda Suspension Package #5 Honda Civic
fit this:
An '89 Civic Wagon? Didn't want to start a new tread on this, so I just tagged it on.

C'mon dudes! I'm more concerned with lowering the wagon, but I can get the answer to that quick, but
calling modacar is like: "Sure, dude, it'll fit fine! Might take a little modifying."

what year and model is it

more than likely it is the alternator tho, take it somewhere where they test batterys, and usually they will have an alternator tester as well

Cool, thanks. It's a '98 200SX SE, (2 door Sentra). The battery's practically brand new, so I'm thinking about the
alternator, but the bitch has only 77,XXX miles on it.

Check all your grounds and lead wires as well. You almost definitely have a bad alternator, based on your description. Make sure the wires leading to the alternator are in good condition as well, though.
