Well.....You said "blinking". This leads me to believe that there is a loose connection. Check your battery terminals. Make sure they are clean and tight. Also check the charge wire from the alternator to the battery. Get it all secure and drive it and see if the light goes out. If that doesn't work, pull the + off of the battery and see if it will run and drive. If not, it's the alt.
