Battery Replacement in Brookfield, IL

Batteries are very sensitive to changes in the weather. Temperature really affects your battery’s performance. A battery inspection is an important part of your spring and fall checkups. Our advisors will take a look at your battery.

· Is it clean and free of residue? A dirty battery will drain.

· Is there corrosion at the terminals where the battery cables attach to the battery? If there is, the corrosion can interfere with how efficiently electricity passes back and forth from the battery.

· Are the cables loose? Make sure they are tight.

· Are the cables themselves corroded? Corrosion can actually eat through the battery cables.

Our service advisor can help you choose an appropriate battery for your vehicle and your lifestyle. If you need extra power owing to cold weather or a need for more reserve capacity, you may want to choose a heavy-duty battery. Just make sure it fits into your car. An oversized battery may give you the power you need, but it’s a serious safety hazard if the terminals come into contact with other parts of the vehicle.
