The alternator is a critical part of your vehicle’s electrical and charging system. While the battery provides the electrical power needed to start the engine, the alternator helps recharge the battery and supplies electricity to systems and accessories while the engine is running. When the alternator begins to fail, your vehicle may develop a variety of warning signs. Recognizing these symptoms early can help you have the problem diagnosed before you’re left with a vehicle that won’t start.
