There is usually a resistance wire [ not to be confused the OTHER resistance wire that goes to the ign coil ] wired in parallel in the wiring loom across the gen light so that if the light fails, the alt still charges. So if your alt is still charging/engine continues running in the off position with the gen light out, this is how it happens. Diode will fix it.
