Chevrolet Buick GMC Battery Test in Arborg, MB

Your car’s battery is what provides the electricity needed to power all the electrical parts of your vehicle. Without this jolt of electricity, your car won’t start. It may be one small box, but it is vitally important to give life to your Chevrolet Buick GMC or another type of vehicle. It’s important to check your battery and electrical system twice a year, not just when your battery is showing signs of weakening. This will help prevent a failure that leaves you stranded with a dead battery and frantically searching Google for a car battery near me. This diagnostic test is simple and only takes a few minutes. It’s something you can do when getting your oil changed at Viking Motors in Arborg or when you have some spare time.

What is a Battery Inspection?

When your battery is fully charged, it should measure at 12.6 volts or above. Anything below this and you’ll probably need a battery replacement. On average, a battery lasts between three and five years. However, exposure to the elements can shorten this lifespan. At Viking Motors, we offer a free battery inspection that will give you an idea of just how much life your battery has left. This is good to know in case it needs to be replaced sooner rather than later.

Warning Signs for Battery Replacement

There are a few warning signs that signal it is time to replace your vehicle’s battery. For starters, when you start your engine, you’ll notice it is sluggish. It just doesn’t seem to want to start. Another tell-tale sign is when your check engine light comes on. This could very well be an alert to let you know your battery is on the fritz. Other signs to look for include low battery fluid, a swelling battery case, or a stinky smell like rotten eggs coming from the battery. If you experience any of these or if your battery is three years or older, you’ll want to get a battery inspection at Viking Motors in Arborg as soon as possible.
