Electrical Problem

I'm lost as to what this problem is. My car is making a buzzing noise at low idle (500-700) but when i get on the gas it goes away. THe light on the dash looks like this |\|. I installed a brand new alternator just last year, and she was running like a champ just yesterday. It's an 86 T/A with the LG4 engine in it. I've changed the intake, the cam, the headers, and had the carb cleaned. Anyone know what it might be?

I think that is a "choke" symbol for the carb...

Re: Electrical Problem

it is, just reading up on it though, it says that when it stays on, that there is a generator circuit problem. I just don't know what it could be. I know that my power windows are dying on me.
