Understanding the Role of Alternators and Starters
If your car refuses to start, it may not just be the battery at fault. The issue could lie with the starter or alternator.
Starter Issues: The starter engages your engine. Electrical or mechanical problems can prevent your engine from starting, causing it to struggle or fail completely.
Alternator Roles: Your alternator keeps the battery charged and powers key systems like headlights and wipers. If it's not functioning, you may notice erratic electrical behavior or the engine failing soon after ignition.
