When to Replace Your Car Battery in Portland, OR

The battery is essential for relaying power to pretty much every electrical component in your ride, from the tail lights to the ignition. When you've got a weak battery, your vehicle won't start or function for very long. If your dashboard battery light is illuminated, you'll want to book an appointment for battery replacement in Portland soon. That said, there are a handful of other easy-to-spot signs that you're in need of a new car battery.

Consider getting a new battery installed when: the engine is slow to crank; the interior lights start to dim or flicker; you hear clicking sounds when turning the key in the ignition; the interior lights start to dim or flicker; and you need way too many jumpstarts to get going!

You don't want to put off a battery replacement when it starts to go, since a totally zapped battery could leave you without a working car. Pay attention to these signs, and review your owner's manual for manufacturer suggestions. A vehicle battery usually needs to be swapped for a new one every three years or so, but driving style and climate can impact this timeframe.
