Buy Nissan Replacement Electrical System Parts in Chesapeake, VA

Your Nissan relies on its electrical system to power the engine, accessories, and more. Help keep your electrical system in great shape by shopping OEM replacement parts in Chesapeake, VA.

What Does a Car Electrical System Do?

Your Nissan has a few key systems that help you comfortably get from one side of Chesapeake to the other, and a lot of these systems rely on your vehicle’s electrical system to function. Without the electrical system, a lot of components such as your wipers, radio, headlights, and windows wouldn’t work — or your Nissan won’t even start! Things like door locks, the instrument panel, anti-lock brakes, and even power steering all function on electricity.

Your Nissan's electrical system has three main components that let it supply power to the engine and other components: the alternator, battery, and starter motor. 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 provides power to your Nissan’s electronics while you’re driving. Since these three components play such essential roles, they're where you want to look first if you start experiencing electrical system problems.

Purchase a New Nissan Battery in Chesapeake, VA

You need your battery to start the engine, and it needs the right amount of voltage to complete this task. You don’t want to get stranded because your battery is too low on power to start your vehicle. Keep an eye out for signs you may need a new Nissan battery, including dimming headlights or interior lights, a clicking noise when attempting to start your Nissan, and slow engine starts. Compare Nissan batteries online and visit your local Nissan service center in Chesapeake, VA to have your current battery inspected [1] if you think you’re having battery issues.

Get a New Nissan Starter in Chesapeake, VA

Your starter is a small motor that receives power from your battery and uses it to crank your engine. Though starters are built to last quite a while, they can wear out or fail over time. Like a bad battery, a failing or bad starter may have symptoms like the engine is slow to crank or there’s a clicking sound when starting your Nissan. With a bad starter, you may also notice symptoms such as oil on the starter motor, the car won’t start, smoke emitting from your vehicle, or the starter motor stays on after the engine has started. It’s likely time to replace your Nissan’s starter if you notice any of these signs, so stop by your Chesapeake Nissan dealership for a full checkup.

Buy an OEM Nissan Alternator in Chesapeake, VA

The battery and starter might get your engine up and running, but your alternator is responsible for keeping the engine going once it’s started. The alternator is responsible for running essential components like your wipers and headlights, and interior features like powered seats. An alternator will typically last the life of the vehicle, but your alternator might incur damage or wear out too soon. A bad alternator may display symptoms like 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 feel like you’re having alternator issues, schedule a service appointment in Chesapeake at your local Nissan service center for an inspection, and order a Nissan alternator replacement.
