Battery Service and Replacement
Battery Service in Flemington
Like other batteries, car batteries drain over time. Once they have reached their limit, you'll need to have the battery changed or else risk running into no-start situations. In order to prepare for this battery change, you'll want to keep an eye out for several warning signs that your battery is running out of charge.
Some warning signs of a battery running out of charge include:
- Dim Lights - Have you noticed your headlights or interior lights aren't as bright as normal? This could be because your battery is starting to lose its charge.
- Slow Starts - If you go to start your vehicle and it takes it a while to crank to a start, this could be a sign that your car's battery is in the beginning stages of becoming weak.
- No Starts - Have you had to jump-start your can because the battery was dead? This is a sign that your battery may need to be replaced. If it's the first time a jump start is required, it's not necessary right away, but, if it's a regular issue, it's time to get a new battery before it won't jump start at all.
When is Battery Service Recommended?
Drivers should have their car's battery inspected at every oil change. This will help ensure that your car's battery is in tip-top shape. The technician will check for clean and tight connections, the battery's charge, and that the hardware is secure. After three years, you'll want to have the battery tested annually, ensuring that its charge is holding strong.
