2004 GTO Power Problem 2004 GTO seems like the battery wont charge, purchased a new battery and got the alternator checked and all seemed well. What are some things to check to help solve this problem. Was thinking it could be a ground but I don't know exactly where to start, any information or suggestions will help.
Thank You

My trans am was only showing 8.5 volts and it had a new battery, alternator tested good, grounds were secure, and still had low voltage but once I replaced the cables all was well and everything worked fine.
If you (Hold Mode + Set then turn the key to ON) that should get you to the secret menu to display voltage keep an eye on it and to see what voltage you are getting.

Look at the battery cables see if there is any corrosion build up on them, if so you should replace the cables.
