You may be heading into work one day and your car won’t start. Perhaps your vehicle does start but it is having trouble doing so. Immediately, you may think that this is a battery issue.

Signs of a Bad Alternator

The purpose of the alternator is to keep the battery charged while the vehicle is running. Eventually, like most other parts in your vehicle, the alternator will start to fail. This can lead to many inconveniences later if the issue isn’t taken care of right away. Thankfully, a dying alternator is likely to start showing symptoms of failure before it fails completely. Here are some signs of a bad alternator to watch for.

  • Dim/Flickering Headlights
  • Difficulty starting up the engine
  • Engine not starting at all
  • Dead battery
  • Delay when using electrical components, like the air conditioning and power windows
  • Warning sign on the dashboard
  • Strange sounds, like grinding or whining
