Auto Electrical Diagnostics and Repair

Making sure your car is fully functional isn’t only about the engine and transmission. There are countless electrical components in a car that are essential to a car functioning the way it’s supposed to. 

At Advanced VTech we want to make sure each of these components in your car is fully operational so you can keep your vehicle on the road, operating reliably and keeping you safe. That’s why we are proud to offer auto electrical diagnostics and repair to our customers in Buffalo Grove, IL. 

Electrical Components in Cars 

Three main components make up a car’s electrical system—the battery, the alternator, and the starter. These components control several essential functions in a car, such as starting the engine and keeping it functioning. In other words, without a functioning electrical system, you won’t be able to drive. That’s where Advanced VTech can help with its electrical diagnostics and auto repair services. 

The electrical system also powers other features in your vehicle, such as: 

• Interior and exterior lights such as headlights 
• Power steering 
• Windshield wipers 
• Antilock braking systems 
• Power windows, door locks, and seats 
• Radio / Stereo and navigation system 
• Heat, air conditioning, defroster 
• ECU – electronic control unit – the “brain” of the engine / vehicle 
• Digital gauges on the instrument panel 

Signs You Need Electrical Work Done 

If your car is experiencing electrical problems, it will usually exhibit clear signs even before the car stops working altogether. A few clear signs that you need Advanced VTech’s auto electrical repair services include: 

• The battery light clicking on 
• Check engine light appears 
• Trouble starting the car 
• Flickering lights 
• Unusual sounds  

These issues may be caused by problems in any of the three main components of a car’s electrical system, especially the battery.
