to Do When Your
Mercedes Alternator Fails
From Experts in Duluth

2. The alternator plays a crucial role in
powering the electrical systems & the
battery in your Mercedes.

3. However, the failure of the
alternator can affect the smooth
running & performance of your high-
end car.

4. Here are the signs associated with a malfunctioning
alternator that should determine whether it needs to be
repaired or replaced.

5. Dimming Lights

6. If your alternator is failing, then
you will observe that the
headlights of your car start to go
dim.

7. However, if you observe that your
headlights are flickering then it is
caused due to unstable voltage from
the alternator.

8. In case the headlights are flickering
then repairing the alternator would
solve the issue but if the headlights
are dimming then you have to replace
it.

9. Starting issues

10. The alternator helps in
completely recharging the battery
of your car so that the starting
process is smooth the next time
you start.

11. However, a faulty alternator won’t
be able to charge the battery when
the car is running & this can lead to
serious starting issues.

12. If you are facing serious starting
issues in your car & the battery is
absolutely fine, then you should
replace the alternator.

13. Unusual Noises

14. The alternator contains
bearings & other spinning parts
and its breakage can lead to
squealing or banging sounds.

15. Most of the time a bad bearing in
the alternator causes the unusual
sounds & repairing the bearing
would solve the problem.

16. However, if the noises persist
and the alternator is in really
bad shape, then you need to
replace it with a new alternator.

17. Electronic System Failure

car are malfunctioning all at a time,
then it is a sign of complete
alternator failure.

new one as repairing it won’t fix the
problem.
