Default Help!!!!!!

I have a 2004 f150 4.6l. After replacing battery and alternator I am now getting a battery light that comes on. I was told that it could be the starter solenoid. I am having trouble locating where it is. Anyone know where I should look.

No I have not check the voltage regulator? Not one that normally works on vehicles so this is all new to me. I tried to open the link but it says expired. I'll try to locate the voltage regulator and go from there.

Sorry the video won't open for you. I just tried it and it worked. Anyway, the starter solenoid normally comes with the new or remanufactured starter. The voltage regulator will be on the firewall behind the battery in a group of wires. Google search "Voltage regulator+2004F-150+ 4.6L" image.
