Try disconnecting the battery for about 20 seconds and then reconnecting it. It should do the trick!

Re: 08 chevy batt light stays on

while you have it disconnected clean the terminals and put a coat of dielectric grease on them too

Re: 08 chevy batt light stays on

According to the service manual if it sets a voltage DTC in the BCM it will turn on the light. I would disconnect the battery overnight then hook it back up and see what happens. Worst case is a trip to the dealer to get the light cleared under warranty.
