Starter Charging System

Electrical Service

Our ASE Certified Technicians are trained to maintain and service your electrical system as needed to ensure the reliability and safety of your vehicle. The various components that make up a vehicle starting and charging system are not immune to failure from constant use and wear. Some of the signs that you starting and charging system is not up to par include:

  • Dim headlights
  • Clicking or growling noises when starting your vehicle
  • Dashboard warning lights.
  • During a starting and charging system service, our mechanics review the voltage level of your battery, test your alternator, and look over your starter.

Electrical System Maintenance 

An inefficient starting and charging system can lead to engine failure, which is why routine maintenance is essential. Some components, such as the battery, may give little warning before they fail. Our trained auto mechanics combines the proper tools with extensive automotive knowledge to test and repair the components of your vehicle’s starting and charging system. Some of these methods include:

  • Intensive visual inspection of your battery and condition of its case
  • Battery testing and replacements
  • Examination and cleaning of electrical cable connections
  • Engine diagnostics for complex electrical problems
  • Inspecting and testing battery, alternator, starter, headlights, windshield wipers, gauges, clock, power windows, power locks, and all other electronic components.

Diagnostics

Our ASE certified Mechanics can diagnose all problems with electronic components in your vehicle, and we have a full range of diagnostic equipment to get the job done right without unnecessary expenses replacing parts that are not malfunctioning. Our goal is to find the problem and fix it – nothing more – nothing less.

Drivability

Drivability is the degree of smoothness and steadiness of your car’s acceleration. As mentioned above, most modern vehicles are fitted with onboard computers that continuously check the readings from various sensors and make adjustments when necessary based on driving conditions. In the case of drivability problems, you may receive a warning message on your car’s dashboard, or you may notice sluggish performance.

Engine Controls

The engine control system is an onboard computer in your car. Like all computers, the engine controls are composed of hardware and software. Automotive engine control systems are responsible for regulating exhaust emissions and providing increased fuel economy. To get the most out of your car’s technology, make sure the engine controls are functioning correctly.
