Experiencing issue when trying to start your car? Car batteries and starters wear out over time and eventually need to be replaced. If you're experiencing this issue, it might be time to look for a replacement. Test your starting system and shop for new car batteries with Avon Auto & Truck and Alpine Tire Co. in Avon & Glenwood Springs, CO.
The primary function of a car battery is to provide the starting system with enough electricity to get your engine started. Additionally, your car battery has to store enough power to power your car's electronics while the engine isn't turned on.
• Accessories inside your vehicle won't turn on • Your engine doesn't turn over when attempting to start • Slow-moving accessories • Dimming/flickering lights • Battery warning light • Swollen battery case • Heavily corroded battery terminals
Taking care of your battery will help you to make the most out of your battery's life. Some simple tricks to help improve your battery life include:
• Don't keep electronics running for long with the engine turned off • Routinely test the voltage of your battery and alternator • Avoid turning off your car when stopping for short times • Unplug accessories when vehicle is turned off • Clean corrosion from battery terminals regularly
When your vehicle's starter starts to fail, it can be troublesome since your vehicle won't run. Some common symptoms of a failing starter include:
• Engine not starting or takes longer to start • Clicking or whirring sound when attempting to start engine • Ignition "grinding" noise even after car has started • Smoke comes from engine when trying to start it
