ALT light on but battery is charging OK 700

85 740 GLE

The alernator light and the EGR light stay on all the time in my car. I have checked the charging voltage and it is about 14 volts. Same with headlights on.
The red lights come on with the ignition and never go out after starting.

The alternator seems to be charging fine but something must be bad between the alernator and the instrument panel or perhaps a ground is bad.

Any ideas? Cars of this year had insulation problems with the harness.

Thanks, Steve
