Your car’s alternator plays a vital role in maintaining your Toyota’s battery functionality. Our service staff is here to help our Rockwall, Mesquite and Garland, neighbors better understand how your alternator works and how to spot warning signs that your vehicle may need to be evaluated by our professional technicians. 

An alternator is a generator that converts mechanical energy into electricity for your Toyota car or SUV to use in order to continually recharge your battery. In the absence of this power supply, your car battery’s power reserve would be insufficient to maintain your Toyota’s electrical system while traveling. 

To help you properly maintain your alternator and keep your Toyota running at its best, Toyota of Rockwall wants to provide our customers with a list of warning signs that could indicate your vehicle’s alternator needs to be serviced. 

• Dim Lights or Overly Bright Lights – These could include interior lights, dashboard lights, headlights, and taillights. You may also notice that the lights in your car are flickering while in use. Other electrical components in the vehicle may also work more slowly than is usual 
• Difficulty with Starting Your Car, Frequent Stalling, or Dead Battery – While sometimes, this can just be a failing battery, a malfunctioning alternator can be spotted if your battery is dying more frequently than it should be. Another indicator is when you are trying to jump start a depleted battery and the battery will not continue to run once disconnected from jumper cables
• Strange or Burning Smell – As alternators work with a belt system, if a belt is malfunctioning, you may notice the smell of burning rubber. You may also smell heated wires if the electrical system is malfunctioning due to your alternator not operating correctly
