Intermittent starting problems

The alternator helps power the vehicle and recharge the battery while the engine is running.

A charging problem may cause:

  • Battery warning light

  • Repeated dead batteries

  • Weak electrical systems

  • Dim lights

  • Vehicle shutting off

  • We can test the charging system to determine whether the alternator or another component is causing the problem.

  • Don't Guess at Starting Problems

  • Replacing the battery, starter, or alternator without testing can get expensive quickly.

  • Our goal is to determine why the vehicle is not starting or charging correctly before replacing parts.
