Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I put a multimeter on it and it is charging but the
battery light is still flashing and there is a message that says battery not
charging   I took it to a chevy dealer the load tested it checked loose grounds
and other tests said it is working correctly and they don't know why the light
is on I have driven it for about 2 weeks so I know it is working I just want to
get the light and message off the dash

Check your battery terminal and connection on alternator. Loose/dirty connection can cause this
