Hi

I’m no electrics expert but the behaviour doesn’t sound too far from normal.  I think the warning lamp is not directly on the charging circuit so will display different characteristics to the ammeter.  My worry would be the 10 amps discharge at tickover With only the coil taking current you should have about 2 to 4 amps discharge. Any more and something else is connected up.

Cheers

Howard
