What does the red light mean with a battery in the Chevrolet Spark?
Years 2009-2016

Answer

If in our Chevrolet Spark the red light representing a battery has turned on, it means that a malfunction has been detected in the charging system, which mainly includes the alternator. The latter is an element subject to a lot of wear and often it is sufficient to replace the internal brushes. In the worst cases we will instead have to provide for the complete replacement of the device, an operation that requires a cost of about 350 euros.
