Expert RMI Accredited Repairs and Maintenance for All Vehicles—Using Genuine Bosch PartsCommon Signs of Alternator Issues
As alternators wear out over time, they can cause various electrical problems in your vehicle. Look out for these signs that may indicate a failing alternator:
Dim or Flickering Headlights
This is often one of the first signs of a weak alternator.
Electrical Failures
Issues with the radio, power windows, or dashboard lights could be a result of alternator failure.
Battery Warning Light
If your battery warning light appears on your dashboard, it’s likely an alternator or charging system issue.
Difficulty Starting
If your car struggles to start, especially in cold weather, it could be due to a failing alternator not charging the battery properly.
Stalling
A weak alternator can cause your engine to stall as it loses electrical power.
How to Diagnose a Failing Alternator.
If you suspect your alternator might be failing, there are a few steps you can take to diagnose the issue before bringing your car to Briardene Auto:
1. Check Engine Light
If you have a diagnostic tool, scan for error codes such as P0562, which indicates low system voltage.
2. Inspect the Fan Belt
A loose or worn fan belt can cause alternator problems. Check for glazing or signs of wear, and adjust the belt tension if necessary.
3. Measure Voltage
Using a multi-meter, test the battery voltage. It should read around 12.6 volts when the car is off and 14.2 volts or higher when running. If the voltage is lower, your alternator may need to be replaced.
