The battery of a car supplies all electricity to the vehicle and so systems such as your lights, heating, radio and more are dependent on its charge. Without the power from your battery, your vehicle wouldn’t even be able to start.
When you start your car, your battery converts chemical energy to the electrical energy which jolts your car into action. Following the start-up, the alternator then supplies the electrical current to your car, enabling the battery to charge and supply power to other in-car electrical facilities.
If you notice your battery is failing to power any of these systems it could be time to replace the battery.
