Auto Electrical System Service at Boucher Automotive Group 

What Are Some Common Automotive Electrical Problems? 

First, your car’s electrical system runs throughout – from under the hood to in the trunk. There are wires, lightbulbs, circuits boards, fans, compressors, and more. Thankfully, there are also fuses that help prevent damage from surges. Some common automotive electrical problems include: 

• A failing battery. Your car’s technical wizardry and lighting systems are powered via the battery under the hood. It also powers systems that allow you to start your car, run the air conditioner, and a variety of other things. If the battery begins to fail, your car may have trouble starting, which can lead to other issues. 
• Blown electrical fuses. If a system like your climate control or interior lighting suddenly stops working but everything else seems ok, it’s likely a fuse. 
• Faulty electrical contacts or components. Unfortunately, even the most carefully contained electrical components can corrode. This causes malfunctions eventually, which can lead to failure.  
• Faulty or damaged sensors. Your car has a variety of sensors to let you know if something in your mechanical or electrical systems has failed. That said, the sensors themselves are often prone to failure over time.
