Electrical System Maintenance & Service Needed by European, Domestic, or Import Vehicle

  • Battery Maintenance & Testing: The battery is the most important component of the electrical system in your vehicle as it is responsible for providing the power needed to start the engine of your car & also supports the other electrical components as well. The proper maintenance of the battery plays a crucial role in the efficient functioning of the electrical parts. You mustn’t hesitate to approach us at our garages located in Lewisville or Argyle to get your battery inspected & looked after by our master technicians.
  • Alternator Inspection & Replacement: The alternator is responsible for powering the electrical systems and charging the battery when the car is running. However, if the alternator fails to deliver, it can be a catastrophic outcome for your vehicle because it leads to electrical failures and a dead battery. Your alternator needs to be inspected for the amount of voltage it generates. You can drive into any of our repair shops located in McKinney & Cross Roads to get your alternator tested by our certified mechanics.
  • Starter System Diagnosis & Repair: The starter motor is responsible for making the engine rotate so that the combustion process can get started. Any kind of issues with the functioning of the starter motor can create problems in the starting of your vehicle and lead to complete failure of the engine in the long run. This makes it even more important to go for regular inspection & diagnosis of the starter motor in your car. Apart from the start motor, there are many other components related to the starter system that need to be inspected & fixed accordingly.
  • Fuse Box & Wiring Harness Check: The fuse box & wiring harness are often in the eye of the storm when it comes to encountering electrical system failures in cars. Most of the time it is seen that electrical system issues in vehicles are related to issues with the fuse or the wiring harness. Taking your vehicle to a professional mechanic is a must where fuse inspection & replacement, relay functionality, wiring harness inspection, and short circuit detection are carried out by certified mechanics.

FAQs

Definitely, a blown fuse in the starter or ignition system can prevent the car from starting.

If you get to hear a clicking sound but your vehicle fails to start then it might be caused due to a weak battery, faulty starter, or bad electrical connections.

Mostly damaged or loose wiring interrupts the signal to the ignition or fuel systems and this leads to stalling of the car.

The burning smell might be caused due to overheated wires, short circuits, or failing electrical components & should be inspected instantly.

FAQs

European vehicles are engineered with higher precision and tighter performance specs, which means they need specialized tools, fluids, and training.
