ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

Your vehicle's electrical system is made up of a complex network of circuits that create, store and distribute energy where it's needed. Much of your electrical system maintenance can be done through LEX BRODIE'S TIRE & SERVICE CENTER. During a battery inspection our technicians at LEX BRODIE'S TIRE & SERVICE CENTER check:
  • Overall car battery and case condition
  • Cable connections
  • Hold-down hardware
Checking the starter means:
  • Inspecting cable connections
  • Inspecting mounting bolts and brackets
  • A Starter Electrical "Draw" Test, to check the amount of electricity needed to turn the engine over
Checking the alternator means:
  • Conducting an overall visual inspection
  • Inspecting the drive belt
  • Inspecting the mounting brackets
  • Testing electrical connections
  • A Charging System Test to ensure that the alternator current and voltage are to manufacturer's specifications
