When should the car battery be changed in order to avoid malfunctions on the roads
Although the battery is the most important part of the car, it is one of the most vulnerable parts to damage, as a result of the dependence of many vital processes in the car on this part.
As for the life span of the car battery, it ranges from one to three years as a maximum.
Among the main causes of damage to the car battery:
1 - Battery overcharging.
2 - Leaving the car air conditioner in the running state with the engine stopped.
3 - Frequent attempts to start the car engine in the event of a malfunction that leads to the depletion of battery power.
4- The battery poles are corroded to increase the salts and chemicals on them.
Among the most important signs that tell you that your car battery is damaged:
1 - Frequent stopping of the car.
2 - Difficulty operating the car engine.
3 - The car lights do not work well.
4 - The presence of rust in the battery electrodes or what is called the battery fingers.
5 - The appearance of a bulge in the shape of the battery, albeit slightly, as it may appear on the top or on one side.
6 - Problems with charging or the car's electrical system.
And when these signs appear, the car battery must be changed.
