Alternator Repair Near Me
Your alternator is like a power plant for your car. As your engine runs, the alternator generates electricity to recharge your battery and power all your vehicle’s electrical systems, from headlights and dashboard lights to your radio, power windows, and electronic safety features.
When your alternator starts to fail, it can no longer keep the battery charged or supply enough power to your car’s systems. This can cause your battery to die, lights to dim or flicker, and electronics to malfunction. Left unchecked, a bad alternator can leave you stranded.
Not sure if your alternator is the culprit? Here are warning signs to watch for:
- Dim or flickering headlights
- Battery or charging system warning light on the dashboard
- Electrical accessories malfunctioning or working intermittently
- Dead battery even after recent replacement
- Whining or grinding noises
