Are you looking for Alternator replacement for your vehicle?
An Alternator is a simple device that generates necessary electrical power for the running of electrical components of a car, such as exterior and interior lights, and instruments panel.
Alternators produce an alternating current through electromagnetism. This electricity is routed through the battery and is then used to power the vehicle’s various electrical systems.
Symptoms of a faulty alternator
Here are some of the symptoms of a faulty alternator that you should check out at the latest are:
- Indicator light titled ‘ALT’ or ‘GEN’ is turned on. This light shows up on your dashboard and is the first indicator that there is something awry with your alternator.
- One of the major easy-to-spot indicators of a failing alternator is that the vehicle’s headlights are flickering instead of providing a fixed, steady glow. Alternators provide electrical supply to various car components. So these are a sure-fire sign of something wrong.
- Another clear symptom is that other electrical components of your car begin to fail, such as radio, automatic window roll-up, door locks, dashboard lights, and even air conditioning.
- There could be a problem with starting the car. Cars do not just run on Petrol or Diesel. They require electrical energy for the spark plugs that ignite the car’s fuel. A sign for a battery dying out could lie within the alternator. The alternator fails to recharge the battery, and the battery fails to work.
If you notice any of these problems in your car then bring your vehicle down to MTC Service Centre and have it thoroughly checked.
