Buy Nissan Replacement Electrical System Parts in Alhambra, CA

What Does a Car Electrical System Do?

There are several systems in your Nissan that help you navigate Alhambra comfortably, and many of them rely on the electrical system to work properly. Without a working electrical system, a lot of components such as your wipers, radio, headlights, and windows wouldn’t work — or your Nissan won’t even start! Functions like power steering, door locks, the instrument panel, and even anti-lock brakes all depend on a steady stream of electricity to do their job.

There are three main parts to the electrical system that let it supply power to the engine and other components: the starter motor, the alternator, and the battery. When you turn on your vehicle, the battery sends juice to the starter, which causes the engine to turn over and start your car. The alternator is responsible for keeping your battery charged and powers your vehicle's other electronics while you drive. Seeing as how these three parts are at the center of your vehicle’s electrical system, they're where you want to look first if you start experiencing electrical system problems.

Your battery is essential in order to start your engine, and your battery can't complete this important task if it doesn't have the right voltage. You wouldn’t want to get stuck at your home or office because your battery is too low on power to start your vehicle. If it’s time for a new battery for your Nissan, you may notice symptoms like a clicking noise when trying to start the engine, dimming headlights or interior lights, or the engine is slow to start. Check out different Nissan batteries and compare them online, then stop by your local Nissan service center in Alhambra, CA for a complimentary battery inspection [1] if you have any concerns about the condition of your battery.

Get a New Nissan Starter in Alhambra, CA

The starter is a small electric motor that takes power from your battery and uses that power to start your engine. Though starters are built to last quite a while, they might wear out over time or eventually fail. Some signs of a failing starter are similar to a bad battery, such as slow cranking or a clicking sound. However, you may notice the engine refuses to start, the starter motor stays on after the engine starts, smoke comes from your car, or the starter is soaked in oil. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s likely time to replace your starter, so head into your local Nissan dealership in Alhambra for full diagnostics.

Buy an OEM Nissan Alternator in Alhambra, CA

The engine may rely on the battery and starter to get the engine going, but the alternator makes sure your engine stays running while you idle or drive. A lot of key features on your vehicle rely on the alternator to run, such as the lights and wipers, and interior features like powered seats. An alternator will typically last the life of the vehicle, but your alternator might incur damage or fall victim to wear and tear. Signs of a failing alternator include a battery light on the dash, a consistently weak or dead battery, frequent stalling, dim lights, slow or unresponsive accessories, or a burning rubber smell. If you think your alternator is on its way out, schedule an appointment at your local Alhambra, CA Nissan service center for an alternator inspection, and get a genuine replacement part from Nissan.
