What causes your car battery to deteriorate?
The vibrations caused by severe off-road driving lead to erosion of the car battery plates. Sediment that collects on the bottom of the battery case can short the positive and negative plates, causing the battery to fail completely.
Another reason that a car battery tends to drain is lack of use. If a vehicle is parked for long periods of time and driven only for short distances, the battery plates can become covered with sulfate crystals, which in turn can reduce their ability to absorb and discharge electric current.
Overloading the car battery can also shorten its life by boiling the battery electrolyte and exposing the battery plates to atmospheric air. Symptoms of overcharging are a damp-looking battery case and a distinct sulphur smell.
A 12-volt battery has six cells – where each fully charged cell produces about 2.2 volts. Failure of an individual cell can reduce the voltage across the battery terminals to 10.4 volts, which can lead to difficult starting and cold engine performance issues.
How do you know if your car needs a new battery?
Typically the first sign of a dead or dead battery will be warning lights on the car’s dashboard or you may find yourself trying to start your vehicle and only hearing a ticking sound. tac.
Sometimes it’s just normal wear and tear on the car and sometimes it’s an indication of something else that has gone wrong with your vehicle. Common problems with dead or dead batteries are normally associated with overuse, so be sure not to turn on the car’s lights if the engine is not running.
If the voltage is bad or there is a problem with your alternator, a car battery is usually the first component that stops working. The good news is, we have a mobile mechanic near you who can witness the scene and get you back on the road as soon as possible.

How Long Does a Car Battery Last?
Car batteries typically last between 3 and 5 years depending on the vehicle. Dead or damaged batteries are one of the main causes of roadside breakdowns because they are simply too old to do their job. Our mechanics can inspect your vehicle and let you know if it’s time to go for a car battery replacement.
How to recharge a car battery?
Get a vehicle with a fully functional car battery. Park cars parallel so that their batteries are as close as possible. Put both cars in neutral and switch off the ignition. Now place one black clip on the negative terminal of the working battery and the other on an unpainted metal surface on your car that is not near the battery.
Start the vehicle with the healthy battery and let it run for about 10 minutes. Now try to start your car. If the jump works and your car starts, don’t turn off your engine. Carefully remove the jumper cables starting with the black wires, then ride for at least 15 minutes to recharge your battery. If the car does not start the next time you use it, the battery will not hold a charge and should be replaced.
