Electrical and Batteries in Dearborn, MI

AutoTech Clinic tests and repairs automotive electrical systems at 24100 Michigan Ave in Dearborn: batteries, alternators, starters, charging faults, parasitic drains, wiring and the lights, windows and locks that stop working. We test the circuit before replacing a part.

A car that will not start has at least four possible causes, and a free battery test at a parts counter only covers one of them. Testing the battery, the charging system and the starter draw together is what tells you which part actually failed.

Do you test batteries for free?

We test the battery, the charging system and the starter draw together, because the battery is only one of the possible causes of a no start. Call (313) 277-7200 and we will tell you how to book it in.

How long should a car battery last in Michigan?

Three to five years is typical here. Cold winters make batteries work harder to start the engine, and summer heat is what actually shortens their life. A battery that is four years old is worth testing before winter.

Why does my battery keep going flat?

Either the battery can no longer hold a charge, the alternator is not charging it properly, or something is drawing current while the car is parked. Those are three different tests and three different repairs.

Can you find electrical faults in older cars?

Yes. Intermittent faults, corroded grounds and chafed wiring are a large part of what we do, especially on vehicles that have spent many Michigan winters on salted roads.

Do you replace batteries the same day?

Yes. Battery testing and replacement is a same day service, and on vehicles that require it we register the new battery to the charging system so it charges correctly.

Why do I need the battery registered?

Many vehicles with a smart charging system track battery age and adjust the charging rate. Fitting a new battery without registering it means the system keeps charging as though the battery were old, which shortens the life of the new one.
