For reference, here's a little more about each system and how the car battery plays a role in the process:

Starting System: The starting system is responsible for igniting the engine and getting your vehicle up and running. It includes components such as the ignition switch, starter motor, and starter solenoid. If you experience difficulties when starting your car, such as a slow cranking sound or a complete failure to start, it could indicate issues with any of these components.

Charging System: The charging system keeps your vehicle's battery charged while the engine is running and provides power to electrical components. It consists of the alternator, voltage regulator, and battery. The alternator generates electricity and replenishes the battery's charge, while the voltage regulator controls the output of the alternator. If you notice warning indicators on your dashboard, dimming lights, or a weak battery, your charging system may need attention.

Batteries: The battery is the heart of the electrical system. It stores electricity to provide the initial power to start the engine and operates electrical systems when the engine is off. Over time, batteries lose their ability to hold a charge and may need to be replaced. It's important to regularly inspect your battery for signs of corrosion, check the fluid levels (for non-sealed batteries), and perform battery load tests to ensure optimal performance. Also, don't wait until your battery is on its way out to replace it. When it's time to change the battery, take care of it so you don't end up experiencing issues when you're out and about.
