What is starting and charging?

At Hiller Automotive, we offer various services on starting and charging systems that ensure that the starting and charging systems of your car are in the best condition as they help the car to start and in the event of a failure, you will end up with a nonstarting car.  Let's examine more closely what is starting and charging!


Understanding the Starting System 

Starting systems are responsible for getting your vehicle engine going when you turn or push its start button. Here is an outline of all key components involved:


  • Battery: At the core of any starting system lies its battery, providing all the energy necessary for starting and powering all electrical components of your vehicle when its engine is off.

  • Ignition Switch: This part begins the starting process when you turn or press your key or button, sending a signal to the starter relay and initiating its activation.

  • Starter Motor: Powered by battery power, the starter motor activates to turn over an engine's crankshaft to start it up and engage the flywheel that has been connected.

  • Flywheel: When connected to an engine's crankshaft, its flywheel can be turned by its starter motor to start running autonomously.

Failure of any component of the starting system could leave your vehicle immobile. If this occurs to yours, bring it by Hiller Automotive so we can inspect its starting system; our All Car Services also make sure every aspect of its functioning is in perfect order.


Role of Charging Systems

Starting systems are crucial in getting your engine moving; charging systems play an integral role once running. Charging systems refuel battery power as they deliver electricity throughout your vehicle's electrical systems. Key components of charging systems include:


Drive Belt

The drive belt connects an alternator to an engine, enabling it to spin freely and generate electricity. If it becomes worn or broken, alternation operation stops occurring resulting in an exhausted battery and reduced performance of other systems in your car.


Alternator

The alternator can be understood as the core of any charging system, which transforms the mechanical energy of the engine into electric current, which charges the batteries and power other electrical systems of your car.


Voltage Regulator 

It controls the voltage output of the current provided to a battery from an alternator and enables the battery to charge effectively without being overcharged, which is detrimental to the battery.


Battery

Although its primary role lies with starting systems, batteries also serve a critical function in charging systems by storing electrical energy produced by alternators.

From constantly losing charge, or malfunctioning electrical systems to nonfunctioning speakers.

Common Problems in Starting and Charging Systems

  • Dead Battery

  • Faulty Starter Motor

  • Faulty Alternator

  • Loose or Worn Drive Belt
