Signs of Electrical Problems

These common symptoms often point to an issue with your vehicle’s electrical system.

1. Car Won’t Start or Cranks Slowly

This is the most obvious sign. It could be a dead battery, a bad starter, or a faulty alternator that isn’t recharging the battery as you drive.

2. Dim or Flickering Lights

If your headlights or dashboard lights are dim, flicker, or brighten as you rev the engine, it’s a classic symptom of a failing alternator or a bad battery connection.

3. Power Accessories Not Working

When your power windows, locks, seats, or radio stop working intermittently or all at once, it can be caused by anything from a simple blown fuse to a complex wiring problem.

4. The Smell of Burning Plastic or Wires

This is a serious symptom that indicates an electrical short. You should pull over safely and have your vehicle inspected immediately to prevent a fire.
