I'd be checking the alternator... and the battery. - I'd guess the voltage regulator has died so it's not charging the battery properly (so the light comes on when it's not getting 14.4 volts, and off again when it does).

this happened on my sunny, and as time went on, my headlights used to flicker on hard acceleration etc. turns out the alternator was faulty and not charging correctly, so as above!

The bearings on my alternator were starting to give up when the light started to flash on my dash. Then it ceased up about a week later.
