DB When a car refuses to start, the battery usually gets accused first. Sometimes rightly. Sometimes the battery is completely innocent.
What a weak battery may cause
- Slow cranking
- Clicking
- Dim lights
- Electrical systems behaving strangely
- Complete failure to crank
What a starter motor problem may cause
- Clicking despite adequate battery power
- Intermittent starting
- No cranking
- Grinding noises
- Starter engagement problems
Testing the battery, electrical supply and starting system is far better than guessing. Call DB Autos on 01782 844320.
