Your vehicle's electrical system is made up of a complex network of circuits that create, store and distribute energy where it's needed. Much of your electrical system maintenance can be done through Tires and Brakes for Less.

Checking the alternator means:

• Inspecting the drive belt
• Inspecting the mounting brackets
• Testing electrical connections
• A Charging System Test to ensure that the alternator current and voltage are to manufacturer's specifications
