Big 3 upgrade - Battery Saver mode
tvcincy posted a topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
Hello, I recently upgraded the big 3 for my 2008 Chevy impala. It increased the voltage from 12.2 at my amp to 15.2 at my amp with the car running. I noticed the past couple of days I get a warning message in the instrument panel saying battery saver active. My headlights are still dimming bad. I have stock battery and alternator. I used 1/0 wire in the big 3. I do have shitty dB link 4 gauge cable running to my subwoofer amp which is a PPI PC21400. I have an old Sony 400 watt 4 channel running highs. I read that 05' Impala's have a sensor that turns this feature on that keeps the alternator around 13 volts. I'm not sure though. Just something I read. Does anyone have any input or experience on this? Any recommendations? I appreciate any help. I know I can always count on SMD members.
