No battery light?

Rather than clog up the alternator rebuild thread, I'll start a new one...
When I replaced my alternator last year (I know, I know, what can I say, I was in a hurry and needed the car immediately) my dashboard battery light stopped working - the very light that told me my old alternator had died. It doesn't turn on when I first turn the ignition on the way it's supposed to. I installed the replacement exactly like the original, plugged everything in and all that. It charges just fine, but I'd like to have that light back to warn me when this one eventually bites the dust. What should I check?

Pull the cluster and in the back are little knob things that you twist. Replace the LED and test. That's where i'd start first.
then give the cluster a good smack
