more than one problem
I would guess you have a short in the wiring inside the dash. I base that
assumption on a couple of things: First, the alternator switch on my coach, which should be the same as yours, does not switch alternators. It only switches which one is being displayed. Second, I had a number of problems where I would get glitches, most notably the transmission degrading and going into do not shift mode, when various switches were operated, most often the headlights. I found that a wiring bundle (green wires) passed over a metal piece and had chafed a number of them so that they could short to ground. Besides covering the metal edge with some split rubber tubing, I wrapped each wire and then the bundle in rubber electrical tape.
