Hi,
I have a "06 Impala and I have had to replace the battery about a year ago because it would die over night. After that it worked great and no troubles. It has been a year and it is doing it again. So I took it back as the battery was under warrenty and the tech said they would not cover the warrenty. When I asked why they said there was no code for a bad battery. Now is there such a code for a bad battery? I do have mechanical abilites and know that if the battery is dead it resets the computer so a code would not stay for a period of time. And also a bad cell can not be detected by a computer as there are no sensor hooked to it. If there is a code will someone please let me know.

Thank You
