Power steering, Lights up but its working

Good day to all,
I have a new power steering issue, I've had the old one but that was solved by cleaning all the connectors about 3000 km ago. Now every now and then afetr I drive for a while the EPS light comes up and it stays like this for a couple of minutes it depends, between 1 to 5 minutes tops. I have no real steering problem, all's good from this point of view but the light kind of buggs me... I'm thinking if this could be a battery issue or alternator problem, I have about 13.2 to 13.5 volts and in some cases it drops to 12.8, this I see on my NAV display and on the ScanGauge.

Can you guys help me out with an ideea or maybe a clue

Thanks

For starters you need to check out the charging system, should be putting out 14.25 volts
