How old is your 12v battery? If it is original then I would think of replacing
it.
All sorts of strange behaviors have been linked to a weak 12V battery in the
Mitsubishi i-MiEV. Even to the extend of DC to DC converter/charger failures.
It certainly affects the range indicator. You can google it on i-Miev forums.
Spark may have similar issues.

Hi Folks
My 2015 Spark (predicessor to Bolt) off peak charges to 100%. Then if I don't
drive it for a day it drops to 80% showing 20% kWh used even though no one
drove it. Is it running the air conditioner and heater or something just to
waste some energy to put the battery down to 80% for Lithium longevity? Wish
it was like my 13' Leaf where I just set 80%.
A seperate issue is the horn honks at odd times (like when following a bunch of
Harley Hells Angels down the freeway). Or the last time in a police station.
So I pulled the horn fuse and just put it in for annual vehicle inspections.
Has someone bypassed the microprocessor that it goes through and can post how
to wire direct? The wiring harness is really buried and the steering column is
hard to take apart. The horn is hidden too. Maybe I'll just wire one of those
old JC Whitney Aaoogah horns to a seperate button on the dash and bypass the
buried wiring.
Have a renewable energy day
