Replacement Alternators for cars, vans and 4x4s

Van & Car Alternator replacement

The alternator is the component on a motor vehicle that converts mechanical energy into an electrical current that charges the car's battery and supplies power to the lights, dashboard, radio etc. If there is a fault with the alternator, it is unlikely that the car will start. The alternator in a car is used to charge the battery while the engine is running. If the alternator is not working properly the battery may not be able to hold its charge and this could be the first sign that something is wrong. Inexperienced drivers may assume the issue is with the battery itself and replace it, only to find the problem reoccurs.

An alternator can be cheap to replace, but can be very inconvenient if it fails, as it often does so without any warning. A regular service of the motor vehicle will ensure that the alternator is working to its full capacity.
