Why is it important to get my vehicle’s electrical system serviced?

There can be dozens of electrical components needed to route power in your vehicle’s electrical system. These are different for each vehicle depending on make, model and age.

Every vehicle's electrical system includes a battery, alternator, and starter. Many new vehicles also feature sophisticated computer systems that affect functions like steering, brakes, sensors, and more. All of these electrical components make it difficult to diagnose the cause of vehicle electrical problems, but most begin and end with your battery.

How do I know when it’s time to have my vehicle’s electrical system serviced?

Batteries usually last between three and seven years. So, with that said, it’s a smart idea to replace your vehicle's battery every four years as a safety measure.

Have your vehicle’s electrical system checked immediately if:

> Your vehicle won’t start – you turn your key and hear clicking, grinding, or no sound at all
> Interior or dashboard lights do not illuminate properly
> Your vehicle runs well, but the headlights dim while you’re traveling at low speeds, or idling at a stop
