Common Signs of Auto Electrical Problems

There are many types of electrical problems that can affect your car. Some of the most common ones include:

  • Engine will not crank properly
  • Battery seems to always be dead
  • Headlights and other car lights are not working properly
  • Fuses or relays keep burning out
  • Burning plastic smell

What Could Be Causing My Car’s Electrical Problems?

There are many reasons why vehicles have electrical problems. Sometimes problems are due to normal wear and tear. Other times, problems can be due to water damage, a repair due to an accident, or accidental nicking of wires (especially when owners install a new sound system or make adjustments to their car). Typically, mechanics will go through a series of checks to determine where the damage might be and have the correct tools, making it much easier to determine the source of the problem. Their expertise definitely helps, especially when the cause is not immediately apparent. In certain older makes and models, and especially with many of the newer models, there are many more electrical attachments throughout – which means there are more possible points of failure.

The ASE Certified mechanics at M1 Auto Repair can efficiently determine the source of your electrical problems, saving you time and frustration. Some of the most common causes of electrical problems are:

  1. Water – causing corrosion on your grounding system
  2. Nicked wires (often caused by owners installing something)
  3. An accident site where repairs have been made (and an attached wire is not grounded correctly)
  4. The battery – the cables could be bad, the battery connections may need to be cleaned, or your battery may need to be replaced
  5. Fuses, relays, alternators, starter or solenoid – any of these parts may need to be replaced
