Understanding your car's electrical system

posted on

Q: What are the parts of my car’s electrical system? – Joel

 

A: Dear Joel,

The battery, alternator, and voltage regulator are the three main parts of your vehicle’s electrical charging system. The battery assists in starting your engine and runs the primary and accessory electrical components in your vehicle, the alternator recharges the battery, and the voltage regulator keeps the voltage at a safe level for your car’s electrical components. Practically everything in your car runs on electricity, including the starter, on-board computer, power steering, headlights, dashboard, sound system, fans, etc. That’s why it’s important to invest in a good battery.
