Do you mean when you're charging it with an NRG battery pack, or during use? If it's when charging, it's the NRG. If that's the case, unplug it, turn the light on to the spot setting to draw it down, then plug it back in to recharge it, wait 24 hours. If it's still only showing yellow, return the NRG as a warranty issue. If it is just the light with AA batteries, leave it on, it'll eventually go red, and it'll be time to replace the batteries. With a fresh set, it'll then show green. As Donald mentions, the indicator light measures battery life, not the function of the headlamp.

That should be the battery indicator light. Yellow means that it has between 20% and 50% power.
