We can help you choose the right battery
for your vehicle and lifestyle. Our staff
can safely and professionally install your
battery and get you back on the road.
1. Battery
When your car's engine is off, the
battery provides the required power to the
rest of the system, as well as during
start-up (cranking). It also supplements the
power from the charging system during
periods of high demand.
2. Charging System
This is the heart of the electrical
system. It consists of three main
components: the belt-driven alternator,
various electrical circuits, and a voltage
regulator. The alternator supplies power to
the electrical system and recharges the
battery after your car has started. Just
like it sounds, the voltage regulator
controls the voltage, keeping it within the
operating range of the electrical system.

3. Starting System
This system consumes more electrical
power than any other in your car. The
starting system consists of three components
which work in tandem: the ignition switch,
the starter relay or solenoid, and the
starter motor. The ignition switch controls
the starter solenoid, which activates the
starter motor. The starter motor then turns
the engine until your car starts.
