So I was hoping there was some way to de-activate the sensor that measures the voltage/amperage drop or increase the time delay before it displays the message. Low-power mode helps you to save energy by disabling background activities that further help your device to boost and extend its battery life. Use ‘Low-power mode’ iOS guides you to activate ‘low-power mode’ as soon as your iPhone hits 20 percent charge point. We like to go to the local drive-in and need the radio to tune in to the movie sound track. Extreme hot or cold temperatures may affect the battery negatively and drain faster. While on vacation, the truck sat for 6 weeks without being run and it started right away, so it doesn't appear to be a slow drain.

In both scenarios, the battery measures 12.2 volts. Again, the engine starts without a problem. If I ignore the message, the tones sound a few more times, and after 30 to 40 minutes the radio turns off, tones stop, but the message remains on the dash display. The engine starts without any hesitation or effort (appears NOT a low battery) and the message and tones stop. After a short time (anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes) there are 3 bell tones and “LOW BATTERY, START ENGINE” is displayed. I have a 2014 Yukon, very basic truck, basic power options.Īfter driving (so the battery is fully charged), I turn it off, but keep the key in accessory to listen to the radio. I did find a number of complaints regarding the poor quality of the GM battery, so I had it checked out and it seemed fine. I did a search in this forum, but can't find anything exactly the same.

Does low battery mode damage battery
