Battery light on your dashboard? Our Mallusk mechanics diagnosed a failed alternator producing just 10.8 volts. Learn how 1Stop Motor Shop in Newtownabbey fixed the fault quickly.
When the battery warning light appears on your dashboard, it usually means the electrical system isn’t charging properly. A customer recently brought their car to 1Stop Motor Shop in Mallusk, Newtownabbey after this warning suddenly appeared.
We carried out a full charging system check and quickly confirmed the alternator was only producing 10.8 volts, far below what’s needed to keep the battery charged.
After removing the alternator belt, it became clear the alternator had collapsed internally. It was also extremely noisy, a tell-tale sign of serious mechanical failure.
Our team fitted a high-quality replacement alternator and a new belt. Once installed, we re-tested the charging system — everything was working perfectly again, and the battery light cleared instantly from the dash.
