OEM Alternators
The alternator generates and supplies electrical power to various electrical components and charges the battery. It keeps your Ford vehicle's electrical system functioning properly.
Warning Signs of Alternator Failure
Several indicators can suggest a failing alternator in your car. These include:
Dim or flickering lights: If you notice that your headlights or interior lights are dim or flickering, it may indicate an issue with the alternator's power output.
Warning lights: The battery or charging system warning light on the dashboard illuminating could be an indication of alternator problems.
Weak or dead battery: If you frequently experience a weak or dead battery, even after a full recharge, it could be a sign of a faulty alternator that is not adequately charging the battery.
Unusual noises: Strange grinding, whining, or squealing noises coming from the alternator may indicate worn-out bearings or a failing internal component.
Electrical issues: If you experience electrical problems such as intermittent power loss, non-functioning accessories, or problems with the vehicle's electronics, the alternator may be at fault.
When to replace your alternator depends on various factors, including the vehicle model, driving conditions, and maintenance history. As a general guideline, an alternator should be replaced if it fails to provide sufficient power or shows signs of significant wear or internal damage. Additionally, if you experience any of the warning signs mentioned above, it is recommended to replace yours if necessary.
