The car's alternator performs a simple but vital job: to keep your car's battery charged. The battery is responsible for starting the car, spark plugs, lights, electrics, and sometimes power steering - quite a job - so it's essential that it's topped up - and that's what the alternator does.
The alternator acts like a small generator: the engine spins, and the alternator turns that spinning motion into electricity. The most common problems are worn brushes (the component that maintains constant electrical contact with the spinning alternator) and a failing voltage regulator (which ensures that the charge is sent to the battery at the correct voltage.)
Common signs of car alternator problems include the 'charge' or battery lights flashing on the dashboard, flickering or dimming headlights and interior lights and a growling or whining noise under the bonnet.
An alternator can be rebuilt as opposed to replaced, however in truth the difference in cost is often quite small. Either way the most common repair cost is around £150-200.
A simple way to test an alternator for problems is to do what's known as the headlight test. Park your car with the headlights on or run it in neutral, then rev the engine. If the headlights dim you could well have an alternator problem. A better test is to take your car to a garage, where a car alternator can be tested using a multimeter tool.
If your alternator fails, your car battery won't charge and, very soon, will have insufficient charge to start the car.

The guys at M.E Autoparts were very accommodating. They offered to pick the car up before agreed and although the fault had cleared itself when they got it back to the garage they still tested everything to try and diagnose the problem. Then brought the car back and put it back exactly where they had found it. Would highly recommend this garage to anyone needing assistance in the local area.
Fast response, keenly priced, quick to expedite, great job performed by decent guys. No complaints! I will use Auto Solutions again.
Very professional, excellent communication. Kept me updated every step of the way. Saved me loads of money with price compares to other garages. Had my alternator repaired, a full service, back window wiper fixed. Very resonable and affordable prices when on a low income. Very happy and will be my garage from now on and will recommend to all family and friends. Thank you.
