Battery Test and Replacement in Attleboro, MA
Vehicle batteries are essential parts of the combustion, hybrid, and all-electric process. When they’re functioning properly, you can look forward to getting to destinations such as Norton Country Club. But how do you know when it’s time to have the battery switched out? This Courtesy Mitsubishi guide has the answers you’re looking for.
What Does a Car Battery Do?
The battery underneath the hood of the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross or Mirage G4 serves as a power source for multiple features and specs. The windows, driver instrument cluster, the touchscreen, and even the climate control system utilize the energy in this part. Most importantly of all, the battery activates the ignition when you turn the key, starting a chain reaction that electrifies the engine. As it’s running, the mechanical and chemical energy created by the core are sent to the alternator, where the power is converted into electrical fuel for the battery. The process repeats itself throughout the life of a car, SUV, pickup truck, or minivan.
Battery Test
To ensure your battery is in good condition, our Service Department recommends that you get the part tested every six months at the least. This way, you’ll know the status of your Mitsubishi Outlander or Outlander PHEV’s power levels. So, what are the readings to look for? Typically, a battery that’s in optimal health has a reading of 12.3 volts when the vehicle is off and 13.4 volts when it’s on. If the voltage numbers are below 11.9 when the engine isn’t powered on, it’s likely that the part lacks energy. Charging it could help, but it may be a temporary solution. If the battery is older than three years, you should consider replacing it before making a trip outside the Attleboro area.
Battery Replacement
Switching your battery for a factory-fresh replacement is a relatively easy task. You can actually have this done along with other services because it only takes a few minutes to have it done. When you stop at our location, the technicians will lift the hood and evaluate the battery’s voltage. This is to determine whether the part has sufficient power. In most cases, low energy is due to a failing battery. Therefore, our mechanics will detach the terminals and uninstall the battery from the vehicle. Finally, our Parts Department will provide a new variant that fits your Mitsubishi model. We’re knowledgeable about other brands as well. This gives us the versatility to help all customers get back on routes like Interstate 95.
When Should You Get a Battery Replaced?
- You may want to get your battery replaced every three to four years.
