So long as we're offering warnings, I'll add: stuck contacts can also
manifest themselves as the red light staying on after the engine is
switched off.  If you were to look under the bonnet at that moment you
would find the generator has become a motor and it is trying to turn
over the engine.  It can't keep that up for long.

For a quick remedy I restarted the engine and switched it off again,
likely the jolt caused the contacts to release.  For a permanent
solution some cleaning and adjustment was needed.
