I would start off by re-setting the ECU again.

Remove the neg terminal and leave for 10 min or so.
Remove pos terminal and short to Gnd...(results in complete discharge)
Re-connect pos.
Re-connect neg. (In that order)

If the light is still there u need to pull the fault codes.
You might also have a loose or dirty connection caused by the fitment of the new alternator.
