At Haus Auto Group we understand the frustration that comes with unexpected issues with your vehicle. Whether you are hearing unusual noises, your vehicle is slow to start, or stalling once you are driving, we are here to help.
When your car won’t start, the issue is often battery or alternator related. These elements are responsible for providing power to your vehicle in different phases of use. Haus Auto Group is here to help you better understand the difference between each so that you can find a solution quickly!
Battery Issue vs. Alternator Issue
While problems with your battery or alternator may both keep your vehicle from starting it is important to recognize the signs of each.
The battery is responsible for sending power throughout the vehicle to turn gears and help it start. Without this energy, the vehicle will be unable to turn on. Signs of a dead or low charged battery include: slow cranking engine, vehicle is slow to turn on, vehicle is unable to turn on, and no interior lights or sound.
For battery related issues, we encourage you to check out what is going on under the hood. Possible corrosion or loose connections could be leading your battery to underperform.
The alternator is responsible for sending current back to the battery and providing power to the vehicle’s electronics. Signs of a faulty alternator include: vehicle having trouble starting or not starting, stalling, or squealing sound while the heater or radio are on.
