Starters & Alternators, Mesa

Every vehicle is made up of a complex network of components that work together to make the car function properly. From the starting system to the brakes, each of the vehicle’s components has a unique function. If any one of these components is not working properly, then the car can be inoperable or dangerous to drive. The complexity of a vehicle lends credence to the fact that drivers need a shop they can count on to properly maintain and service their car. Accurate Automotive is just this shop.

While the technicians at Accurate Automotive are thoroughly versed in repairing all of a vehicle’s components and systems, this article is devoted to the vehicle’s starting system. Mesa, AZresidents can trust that Accurate Automotive is comprised of the most adept starting system technicians in the East Valley.

The starting system – as the name indicates – is the system that starts the vehicle. It is made up of the ignition switch, starter, battery and solenoid. If any one of these parts is not functioning properly, the vehicle will simply not start. A technician who knows each of these components intimately should perform diagnostics and service; and Accurate Automotive is home to many such technicians.

When issues arise with a vehicle’s starting system it can lead to many problems. It is helpful for drivers to know what kinds of issues a faulty starting system can lead to. By understanding the problems a starting system in need of repair can lead to, drivers can better assess their situation. Accurate Automotive firmly believes that keeping customers informed in this regard is part of their job description.

First of all, an engine that will not turn over is the most noticeable sign of a starting system in need of attention. Many times, this is due to the vehicle’s battery. It could be that the battery itself needs replacing, or it could be a result of battery cables that have accumulated corrosion or come loose. If it is not the battery itself, which is perhaps the easiest fix, an engine that will not start could be the result of an ignition switch or starter switch that needs replacing. An Accurate Automotive technician is best equipped to thoroughly examine the starting system, pinpoint the problem, and remedy the issue with the least expense to the driver.

Another problem common to a starting system that needs attention is when the starter spins and attempts to start the car, but the engine simply will not turn over. Most times, this scenario stems from a broken gear in the starter drive. Accurate Automotive technicians can examine the starter drive and replace the gear with quality parts at a reasonable price.

A noisy starter is another sign that the starting system needs attention from an Accurate Automotive technician. The noise could stem from any number of problems, including a worn out gear in the starter drive or a starter mounting that has come loose. Diagnosis and repair should be left to a professional at Accurate Automotive.

While the above-mentioned issues are the most common to arise with starting systems, this is by no means a comprehensive list. Starting systems can be temperamental if not properly cared for, and it is of utmost importance for drivers to have the best technicians in the East Valley handle their vehicle’s starting system issues. Accurate Automotive is the place for drivers to have this work performed.
