Reason I ask about the light is if that dosen't work then you will have a no charge situation, something most woulden't think of but it's actually a critical part of the charging circuit, however revving hard enough can start the charge process.
Yes 11V= no charge that is the battery power your seeing, for it to charge you have to see 13V+ so as to overcome the internal resistance of the battery.

Any idea how I go about the problem with the batt light not on with the ignition? The problem is I'm only using the engine loom of the efi to basically run the engine and so on but using the original loom from dash and switches to work the lights and so on if you know what I mean this may be the problem? Really hope not lol
I don't think it can be the alternators reason being I've tried 2 on mine that I have seen working/charging on another car
