Alternator and Starter Repair in Northern Virginia

A dead battery can be a major inconvenience, especially when you're in a hurry. But before you jump to conclusions, it's important to understand that the culprit might be your alternator or even starter. At Chahel Automotive, we're experts in diagnosing and repairing these essential components in Northern Virginia.

Alternator vs. Starter

Your alternator is responsible for generating electricity while your engine is running. It powers your car's electrical systems, including the lights, radio, and other accessories. A faulty alternator can cause your battery to drain, leaving you stranded.

Your starter, on the other hand, is responsible for turning over your engine when you turn the key. If your starter is malfunctioning, your car won't start.
