Alternators

The alternator of your vehicle is a part that is located on the engine, providing power to your battery and charging it at the same time. Electrical systems and computers in your vehicle are powered thanks to the alternator as well. Everything from your power windows to the radio to various parts of your engine, run from the power that your alternator is supplying in order to keep the battery charged. Alternators work hard, but they still have a relatively long lifespan. The average is 100,000 to 150,000 miles before any problems occur or replacement is needed. Some alternators may fail sooner than that though. If your alternator is struggling, there can be issues with electrical components. If you notice that your lights are dim, a service engine light is lit on your dashboard, your engine is stalling or you constantly have a dead battery, the alternator might be to blame. Since alternators are vital parts of your vehicle's charging system, it will need to be replaced if there is a problem with it.
