Signs of a Failing Electrical System

These warning signs indicate it’s time to have your vehicle’s electrical system checked.

1. Slow or Sluggish Engine Crank

If your engine turns over more slowly than usual when you start it, your battery may be weak or your starter could be failing.

2. Dimming Headlights & Interior Lights

Lights that dim, especially when you turn on the A/C or radio, are a classic sign of a failing alternator that can’t keep up with the electrical demand.

3. Battery Warning Light is On

This light specifically indicates a problem with the charging system. It could be the alternator, a bad cable, or the battery itself. Don’t ignore it, or you could end up stranded.

4. Clicking Sound When Turning the Key

A rapid clicking sound often points to a dead battery, while a single, loud click usually indicates a problem with the starter motor or solenoid.
