Signs You Need a Battery Replacement
Your car’s battery is only one part of your car that can go wrong. Knowing the true cause of any symptom can take specialized equipment and diagnostic testing. But there are a few symptoms to look out for that could indicate you may need a car battery replacement. If your car experiences any of the following, you should get your car battery tested.
- Engine cranks (makes chirping noise) when starting
- Colder weather affects the amount of time your car takes to start
- You start your car, but the interior lights do not turn on
These are all signs that point to a drained or broken battery. One way to test if your car’s battery system is the true culprit is to jumpstart your car. If this fixes the problems, then your battery or alternator is ineffective and should be checked and replaced to prevent further issues.
