SIGNS YOUR BATTERY MAY NEED REPLACING

Here are some of the most common warning signs of a problem with your battery:

  • A slow starting engine: Your battery’s parts will wear out over time and become less effective. The battery requires more charging time when this happens, and the engine won’t start right away. A slow start is usually the result of a worn-out battery.
  • Dim lights and electrical issues: Your car’s electronics run on the battery, and if it begins to lose its charge, it will have a more challenging time running at maximum power.
  • A bad smell: An internal short in the battery can cause the battery to leak gas. If you smell a sulphurous odour when you open the bonnet, it may be a leaking battery.
  • Corroded connectors: A white, ashy substance appears on the metal parts of your battery, indicating corrosion. Corroded terminals (the positive and negative connections) can result in voltage problems and difficulty starting your vehicle.
  • An old battery: Ideally, car batteries should last at least a few years. However, climate, electronic demands and driving habits can affect the lifespan of your battery.
