What Does a Car Battery Do?

Similar to the batteries that power everyday devices, car batteries convert chemical energy into electrical energy, which supplies power to all of your car’s internal components. The starter takes energy from the battery and powers a motor that cranks the engine. At the same time, the alternator recharges the battery and sustains power to your infotainment system, electric steering, climate system, and more. Your battery continues to support your car by providing additional jolts of energy as needed and taking over for all electricity supplied while your car’s engine is off. If your battery is compromised in any way, such as being corroded or having a loose cable, performance will suffer—sometimes severely. At Precision Auto in Germantown, Maryland, we have ample experience with car battery care. If you are experiencing issues with your battery, due for maintenance, or would like a general inspection to ensure it’s in proper working order, we are here to assist! We promise prompt turnaround times and a job well done every time.

Signs of a Failing Battery

The signs of a car battery in distress are usually not hard to spot. Sometimes, your headlights or cabin lighting will dim intermittently, or the tone alerting you to an open door, or unbuckled seat belt might drop in pitch or not work at all. On occasion, batteries that are nearly depleted will not have enough charge to activate your car’s starter, rendering your vehicle inoperable until it receives a jumpstart or a replacement battery. If you notice it takes a few tries to start your car, or if it won’t start at all, your battery may be the reason. The smartest drivers know to give our ASE-Certified technicians a call at any of these signs. No matter what issue or symptom your car battery is exhibiting, such as the inability to hold a charge or corrosion around the unit, we can troubleshoot it and get you back on the road in no time flat. Experiencing a dead battery on the side of the road or complications when driving is never ideal, and by remaining on track with routine battery care, you sidestep the chances of anything of the like happening.
