The diode pack in your alternator is bad.  One or more of the diodes are 
shorted, draining the battery and causing the ignition light to stay on.  
Either bring it in for rebuild or replace the pack yourself.  I had mine 
rebuilt a few years ago and it went out again 9 months later, but it was 
under warranty.

I have a 1980 triumph spitfire. I'm having difficulty with the electronic 
ignition system. The electric ignitions light is on when the is running and 
when it stoped. The ignition is draining the battery. I installed a new 
ignition and directional  unit 12 months ago. This problem appared within 
the last week. Does anyone have a suggestions?
