If you see the battery saver active light turn on in your Chevy Impala, it indicates that the battery voltage has dropped below the expected level recognized by the computer. This could be a warning sign of a failing battery or a malfunctioning alternator. Typically, a healthy battery should have a resting voltage between 12.2 to 12.5 volts when the car is turned off, but this voltage tends to decrease as the battery ages. If the voltage drops below the optimal level, it may suggest that the battery is reaching the end of its lifespan. The alternator in your car should be charging and operating at around 14.4 volts; if the voltage is lower than this, the battery saver active light might also illuminate. To determine the source of the issue, you can conduct tests on both the battery and the alternator.

Ensure that the wire attached to the alternator screw is securely tightened. In the event that both the battery and alternator have been replaced, chances are the issue lies with the idler pulley causing the serpentine belt not to rotate correctly. If troubleshooting the idler pulley doesn't solve the problem, you might be looking at an electrical issue.

I'm experiencing a problem with the battery saver light and my vehicle won't start. It's not even attempting to crank and won't shift into park because the display indicates that the settings can only be adjusted in park. If anyone has a solution, I would appreciate your help. I'm willing to try anything.
