Your battery is an important part of your vehicle, so taking proper care of it is a necessity. That means that you need to know the signs that you need BMW battery service. Here's what the technicians here at BMW of Fort Washington think that drivers need to be on the lookout for.
Dim Lights
Your battery helps provide power to the electrical systems in your car. That includes the lights, both on the exterior and those found inside of your BMW vehicle.
If you notice that your headlights are dimmer than usual, that could be a sign of battery troubles. Interior lights that flicker or stay dim could also be an indicator of a problem. You might be due for a battery replacement.
Trouble Starting Your Car
If your car battery is dead, your car isn't going to start. So, if your car won't start at all or it seems like it's struggling as you turn on the ignition, you're probably in need of a new battery. Our BMW parts department can help you out.
Corrosion on the Terminals
Opening up the hood of your car is a good way to check your battery's health. Sometimes blue-green dust can start to accumulate on the terminals of your battery. This is corrosion.
Corrosion can make it harder for your battery to do its job. It can also cause more damage to your battery over time. We can help you keep this crucial component clean and free from corrosion at our BMW service center in Fort Washington.
If you're in need of battery service, don't delay. Schedule a service appointment with our factory-trained mechanics and solve the problem before you end up stuck somewhere with a vehicle that will not start.
