Battery Replacement Service in Green Bay, WI
How long has the battery been in your vehicle? The power supply is one of the essential units equipped in a car. Over time, it’s not as effective and is subject to problems. Therefore, we encourage you to get it swapped for a factory-fresh replacement. To find out when to change it, read our Le Mieux Toyota guide to learn more.
The Purpose of the Battery
Headlamps, dome lights, and even the ignition is powered by the battery. The electric supply contains an acidic liquid within a plastic casing. This unit is then charged, giving off voltage when the key is turned. When you engage the motor, the pistons will fire and energy is sent to various parts of the car. From here, you’ll be able to switch gears, control illumination, and manage infotainment. While you’re driving and using power, the engine generates chemical and mechanical energy and turns it into electricity through a conversion component known as the alternator. As long as this module is working properly, the vehicle won’t run directly from the battery while driving on highways like Interstate 43.
Warning Signs
The Green Bay area can get quite cold during the winter months, so you may encounter problems like low cranking amps. This usually occurs when the power unit is closer to four years old, which is typical lifespan for the energy supply. If your battery is relatively new and still having issues, it could be the connection. A loose terminal can interrupt power and shut down a vehicle, even if it's running. To prevent this, look under the hood and check to see if the bolts are secure. Is there a white substance on the casing or wires? This residue is known as corrosion, and it's a contributing factor that drains your electric cell. If your battery is having issues, consider bringing it to our Service Department for further testing.
Replacement Process
When you deliver your car to us for a battery exchange, we'll test it first. Energy readings that have 11.8V or lower before the engine starts indicates that the cell requires charging and must be swapped altogether. If the vehicle can be turned on, our mechanics will see if the voltage is 12.4V or more. Any levels lower than that would confirm it needs changing. Next, our team will turn off the powertrain, disconnect the battery, and ask the members of the Parts Department for a factory-fresh unit that fits your model. Finally, we'll install the new component and test its amperage. Once everything checks out, you'll be ready to commute on paths like Deckner Avenue. If you need your energy supply changed, visit our location during open hours.
What Are Cranking Amps?
- Cranking amps for vehicle batteries determine how much voltage can start the car.
