Starter Motor & Alternators

The starter motor is part of your car’s starting system and cranks the vehicle’s internal combustion engine to get the engine running under its own power. Your starter motor is essential to start reliably. We don’t want you stranded at the side of the road.  Symptoms of a failing starter 
  • The vehicle won’t start. If you turn the key in the ignition and nothing happens, it’s obvious that there’s a problem with the starter motor. You may also hear a clicking noise in the starter when you turn the key. 
  • Sometimes, the starter activates, but the engine does not crank over, which could mean there’s a mechanical issue. 
  • Erratic starting. If there are times when you struggle to get your vehicle started, it could mean dirty wiring. 
  • The starter motor grinds. This often happens when the gears are worn out or there’s a fault inside the starter motor. This means we’ll have to replace it because it can damage the engine. 
  • Interior lights dim when the car starts. 
  • You may even see or smell smoke coming from the starter motor. 
It is almost impossible to predict or avoid starter motor problems which means you need our professionals to investigate and set the problem straight. Here are a few signs that you need an alternator service: 
  • The indicator light will come on 
  • Headlights may be dim or flicker 
  • Different electrical failures, for example, your car won’t start 
  • Strange noises such as whining or grinding 
  • Car stalls randomly 
  • The battery dies.
We can help you with any of the issues mentioned above, plus we’ll check your battery to ensure you have the charging power to keep the alternator in tip-top shape. Let us help you diagnose and fix these tricky issues and get you back on the road again!
