Batteries, alternators, starters and the cables between them. We test the whole starting and charging system, tell you which part is actually tired, and call you with the number before anything is touched.
Drop it off in the morning and you will hear from us before we close.
Twelve months on the labour, with parts carrying their own coverage.
Battery, alternator and starter tested together, so the right part gets replaced.
The battery, the alternator and the starter lean on each other, so we test all three before quoting any of it.
Load tested against its rating, terminals cleaned and checked, and matched to South Dakota winters when it is time.
Output tested under load. A tired alternator shows up as dim lights and a battery that keeps running down.
Draw tested and listened to. The slow crank on a cold morning usually starts its story here.
Battery load, alternator output and starter draw, all measured rather than assumed.
Which part is tired, which parts are fine, and the price before we start.
The new part fitted, terminals cleaned and torqued, and the system retested before you collect it.
You do not need to know the name of the part. Describe the noise, the feeling or the light, and we will take it from there. Most estimates go out the same business day.
If you would rather talk it through, call (605) 339-9717 and describe what it is doing.
Three to five years is typical, and South Dakota winters take the top end off that. If yours is past three, a test before the first cold snap is cheap peace of mind.
A battery that keeps running down is usually telling on something else, an alternator down on output or a draw that stays awake overnight. The system test finds which one, so the fix holds.
Yes, the tests themselves are quick. Call ahead and we will fit you in, and you will have the readings in hand either way.
It depends on the vehicle and the part it calls for. Call with the year and make, and we will give you the number before you come in.
Bring it in and we will test the battery, the alternator and the starter, then tell you exactly where it stands. No obligation either way.
