The alternator belt is an important component of your vehicle’s electrical system. If it breaks or is slipping, the alternator will not generate electricity, and the battery will soon be drained of power. Periodic inspection keeps it in proper working order.

The alternator doesn't get its power directly from the engine, but is connected to the driveshaft by a belt, usually a serpentine belt. Every now and then, this belt will wear out. An electrical expert can replace and tension it properly to get your engine up and running again.

The fan belt and cooling fan are important parts of your cooling system that should be regularly checked to ensure there are no cracks or damage. It's especially important to check these and other systems before a long trip.

Your starter is the greatest single drain on your battery, and its connections should be checked to minimize this effect. A slowly cranking engine may be a sign of a bad starter, especially in an older car.

Electrical issues in automobiles can be difficult to identify. Instead, if you are having any electrical problems with your vehicle, we can diagnose and then remedy the problem.

A core charge is a fee applied to the purchase of new car batteries when the old one is not traded in. It's used to encourage people to return old batteries so they can be disposed of in compliance with local laws.

If you have power windows, and one of them does not work when you push the switch, the problem could be with the switch itself, the power window motor, or a fault with the wiring system.
