Common issue, glad you got it figured out. IMO Chrysler should have either sealed the battery in or located it in a different place.
Intermittent Battery Light
The Battery light would come on once in a while on my 02 ES.
When checking the charge voltage , it was always 13.8- 14.0 ,
well within spec.
Well what I found was just years , eleven , of light corrosion on
the ground and positive jump connections.
I took both connections totally apart , demel cleaned everything ,
The eyelets didn't even look copper untill I removed the oxidation.
Cleaned everything with contact cleaner and reassembled.
So far , so good but I still think I'll clean all the other eyelet connections
when I have time.
