Varieties of vehicle’s parts are electronics and operates electrically. Battery, regulator and alternator are basic components that serve as source of power to other components.
Provides the electric current to start vehicle and powers other components for their operation.
Regulates the charging and output voltage to protect the electrical components in a vehicle.
Keeps the battery charged and electrical system running within a period of time.
Uses a key to activate the engine, drawing energy from the battery.
Create high voltage to generate electricity for component to operate.
Operates vehicle windows with electric motor using a switch or button.
Reduces steering effort and helps vehicle to move faster.
Responsible to generate, store and supply power to all electrical and electronic components in the vehicle.
Generate current for electric devices
Store & Supply electric current
Operates vehicle electrical parts
Ensure smooth functioning of parts
Keep parts in good working shape
Start vehicle’s engine properly
Keep vehicle running while driving
Energy flows from the battery along wires to other vehicle components, and back to the battery.
Once the key is turned on, the vehicle’s electrical system goes into action. The battery provides power to the starter which turns on the engine. The alternator supply's energy to power the lights, defroster, wipers and accessories.
Avoid corrosion build-ups on posts and cables of batteries. Inspect and clean the battery at least once in a month
Open vehicle hood and inspect belt from cracks, tension, dryness and glazing along the surface.
When a vehicle uses a battery for 4 - 5 years, it’s advisable to change it. This is to avoid unplanned breakdown of battery.
Check connection points under the hood for dust or rust build ups, also make sure they are tightly connected.
Engine can’t crank properly, caused by battery, stater, alternator or fuse.
Indicates system charging problems and low voltage in operation.
Smell of burning plastic or electrical insulation shows a faulty system.
