Signs that you need a new battery include:

  • Engine is slow to start

  • Clicking sound when you try to start

  • Engine doesn’t start at all

  • Lights are dim or flash

  • Corroded battery terminals

  • Check Engine or Battery Light is ON

    STARTERS, push to start buttons

    If your car cranks slowly or makes a groaning noise, you could need a new starter

    ALTERNATORS

    The Alternator converts the power created by the engine into electrical current to feed your electrical systems and recharge your battery. Symptoms of a bad alternator include:

  • Dim lights

  • Check Engine Light

  • Engine Stalling

  • Dead battery - the alternator charges the battery, so if your battery is dead, it may not be getting charge.
