Find Replacement Nissan Electrical System Parts in Ridgeway, VA

What Does a Car Electrical System Do?

Your Nissan has a few key systems that let you get around Ridgeway at your convenience and leisure, and many of them rely on the electrical system to work properly. Without the electrical system, you wouldn't be able to listen to your favorite songs on the radio, turn on your headlights, activate your windshield wipers, adjust your windows, or even start your Nissan! Functions like power steering, door locks, the instrument panel, and even anti-lock brakes also need electricity to perform their jobs.

The electrical system in your Nissan is made up of three parts that help it power your engine and electronics: 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 provides power to your Nissan’s electronics while you’re driving. Considering the important role these three parts have, you’ll want to check them out if you sense there’s a problem with your electrical system.

Get a New Starter in Ridgeway, VA for Your Nissan

The starter in your vehicle is a small motor that takes battery power and uses that power to start your engine. Even though starter motors are designed to last 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. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s likely time to replace your starter, so be sure to stop by your local Ridgeway dealership for comprehensive diagnostics.

Get a Replacement OEM Nissan Alternator in Ridgeway, VA

The engine may rely on the battery and starter to get the engine going, but your alternator is responsible for keeping the engine going once it’s started.

An alternator will typically last the life of the vehicle, but it may become damaged or wear out too soon. A bad alternator may display symptoms like frequent stalling, dim lights, illuminated battery light on the dash, a burning rubber smell, slow or non-working accessories, and a weak or dead battery. If you feel like you’re having alternator issues, schedule an appointment at your local Ridgeway, VA Nissan service center for an alternator inspection, and order a Nissan alternator replacement.
