The car has a relay which engages or snaps into position when the key is turned on and as soon as the car is started it should go off, mine is always engaged even though the key is removed, the relay is stuck
hope this is clear.....

Are you sure it's stuck? Perhaps it's alerting you to a problem which is what it's supposed to do. Have your charging system checked out.

But he mentioned "...even though the key is removed....". I'm not sure if the warning light should still stay on with the key out.

Good point, but how does he know it's still engauged? Is the light on when the key is off or out of the car?
