BMW Alternators

One of the key elements to your BMW running is your alternator. In order to keep your vehicle's systems running, the alternator uses induction to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy via a serpentine belt (also known as the drive belt). Once the car is started and running, the drive belt then turns the alternator which in turn powers your car's accessories like your power windows, headlights and radio. Additional current is generated and is funneled into your car's battery as the battery doesn't provide enough power on its own to keep all of your vehicle's components running all day long. If you notice issues with your lights or have trouble starting your vehicle, there is a chance that it may be tied to your alternator not providing enough current to run your vehicle or charge your battery. If that happens, make sure to get your alternator tested right away. If you need a replacement alternator or parts for your BMW, look no further than with us here at BMW Parts Link.
