Regarding comfort, purchasing a car is a wise investment. Even though it is a depreciated asset, managing daily responsibilities and saving time with it always proves to be valuable. People do, however, spend a lot of money on their cars, but do they fully understand how they operate?

There are very slim chances that the majority of us are even aware of the car's battery. The purpose of this discussion is to highlight how a battery behaves admirably up until it begins to deceive you.

A battery is generally necessary for a car to perform a number of tasks, including starting it and powering its electronics. However, a dead battery could invite trouble when you try to start your car.

Here, point is to clarify the battery situation. It indicates whether a battery can be recharged after it has been discharged or if it is completely dead. If it is completely dead, is there any chance of reviving it?

Many people frequently deal with the issue of a bad battery that won't seem to start their cars. They might find themselves in the hustle when your car’s battery refuses to respond.

How to recharge a dead car battery?

A 12V battery carries 12.9 Volt if it is properly charged, but when the voltage goes down, for example, 11 V, a battery cannot start a car. However, a battery might get discharged for various reasons such as alternator issue or having on rest for an extended period of time with a occasionally moving vehicle.

Usually, a car’s battery receives the adequate charge from the alternator while a car runs particularly. However, it might take one or two hour of constant charging to get a battery full. Avoid using any car features like the air conditioning, radio, etc that draw power from the battery to ensure that this works as effectively as possible.

But, if a battery does not even have enough charge to start a car, then you might need an alternative to start a car.

If you turn the key in the ignition and your car won't even start, you probably have a dead battery or, in general, a discharged battery. An alternate approach, if you see that the voltage in your battery is much lower than it should be, would only work for you. However, a good solution to this issue is to jump start your car. However, you need not to go for a voltage check.

Jump start method requires jumper cables and a second vehicle. The cables that connect your car's battery under the hood are all connected to the battery of the second car while taking all necessary safety precautions. The cables will transfer power from the second vehicle's alternator to your vehicle's battery while the second vehicle’s engine is running, and after a few minutes, your battery should have enough power to start your vehicle.

However, you might not have jump start cables available every time, especially if you face a battery issue away from home. In such a condition, it is wise to ask for a roadside assistance service from Service My Car.

So, is it possible to recharge a dead battery?

Of course! It is possible to recharge a dead battery until it attains a permanent dead state. As there is no doubt, a battery usually serves for approximately three to five years while driving a car. However, the question arises: is it possible to jump a completely dead car battery?

Can jump start help in the revival of a completely dead battery?

However, a jump start always proves to be a valuable remedy to a dead battery. What if a battery attains a certain state when you can start your vehicle even with applying jump start?

Remember that you won't be able to jump start your vehicle if the battery has been discharged too low. If jumping your car doesn't work, your battery most likely has sulfation.

What does sulfation signify?

Sulfation is the state of your car’s battery when it discharges at a certain level and it is impossible to get it back to a charged state.

Small sulphate crystals made of lead and sulphur develop on a lead acid battery's plates during discharge. This is a typical by product of discharge. However, if a battery is discharged for an excessive amount of time, the soft deposits turn into hard, stable crystals that block the battery's ability to store electricity; eventually a battery heads towards the end of its life.

Is it possible to recover from sulfation?

image name

There are methods for recovering from sufation, but they should be recognised very quickly.

You can achieve this by overcharging a fully charged battery for roughly 24 hours using a regulated current of about 200mA. Sulfate crystals are more easily dissolved when the battery's terminal voltage increases. However, a discharged battery requires specialised chargers, which are available on the market. To reverse sulfation, these devices operate by delivering pulses to the battery terminals.

At one point of time, you cannot revive a battery that has gone through sulfation. Rather, go for a car battery replacement at a reputable service centre such as Service My Car. Book a car service or order a car repair quote anytime on our website or app.

If you are a proud owner of a four-wheel vehicle, there is no doubt you always remind yourself about various things such as petrol, gasoline, cleaning, and, of course, car maintenance.

However, you cannot travel further without fuel. While cleaning is optional, it is still a necessity. Service is something that has its own importance for a vehicle. It might cost some money, but surely results in long term benefits.

However, your car's air conditioning system also needs routine maintenance, just like everything else.

Your car's air conditioning will eventually develop a number of problems without routine maintenance. The overall air conditioning system will sustain long-term, irreparable damage even though it may continue to function in some circumstances.

Here, the discussion revolves around the car's air conditioner service. You get a proper insight into the consequences of the negligence of a car air conditioner service.

Unwanted Damages and Hiccups

An attentive approach offers a prolonged service as many air conditioner components do not receive wear and tear. Lack of service might hurt the performance of a number of parts when they work round the clock.

In addition, debris may cause the condenser to become blocked. There won't be enough cool air if the condenser is blocked because it won't be able to cool the hot refrigerant. The refrigerant does not come to a base temperature to work as coolant again.

On the other hand, a refrigerant leak inside the system might exist and go unnoticed. These leaks are frequently caused by hoses on air conditioners. A refrigerant leak, however, turns out to be an expensive affair with ac gas refill because it lowers the actual level of refrigerant while being bad for other components that come into contact with it. Leaving this problem unattended could seriously harm your car's air conditioning.

The compressor clutch in your car's air conditioning system could become damaged if you don't perform routine maintenance on it. The compressor clutch engages, and then your car's air conditioning starts to work. As a result, the compressor won't start if the compressor clutch is damaged. And, you remain left with one option of ac compressor repair.

However, these are some common examples of major damage an air conditioner can sustain, and it is quite possible that you have to go for a new air conditioner system one point of a time if there is substantial negligence in the routine service.

Presence of Distasteful Odour

If the air conditioner in your car has not been running for a while, you might notice an unpleasant mould odour. However, it usually disappears after some time of vigorous cooling.

Additionally, if there is a lack of service, the smell causes you more trouble because bacteria and fungi also live inside the cooling system. The moment an unpleasant smell is detected coming from your car's AC vents; you need to go for car AC repair at a reliable service centre.

Irritating Noise behind the Cabin

A service less air conditioner might end up singing some annoying sounds. This noise often appears when you turn on your air conditioner. It is quite simple to understand the source of the annoying sounds, as air conditioners are made of a number of parts, and these parts use mechanical movement to perform a number of tasks.

However, there are enough chances of wear and tear due to rigorous performance for extended period of time.

And once it happens, the air conditioner starts to produce an unusual noise.

How Do You Identify When Your Car’s A/C Needs Servicing?

image name

The effects of careless auto air conditioner maintenance have been adequately discussed. However, an unpleasant odour or strange noise may indicate that a service is needed.

The simplest way to determine whether the air conditioning in your car is working properly or not when it is on is to measure the interior cabin temperature.

If your car's air conditioner isn't cooling the interior properly, there's a problem. It might, however, just be a low level of refrigerant that is unable to carry out its function.

High temperatures can result from damage to components like the compressor or condenser that are crucial to cooling the air blown into your car's cabin.

If the cabin temperature is higher than usual, it is very likely that the compressor is broken and unable to control the refrigerant. This discomfort is among the most common consequences of neglecting routine maintenance on the air conditioning system. You must immediately have your car's air conditioning repaired if you are experiencing this problem.

A car air conditioner might cost you a hefty amount when it comes to bailing out a damaged system. However, a service cost is a fraction of the replacement amount. Besides, a car air conditioner is an essential feature, especially for those who reside in hot conditions.

If you do not like to travel inside an oven, even for a minute, it is best to keep your car’s air conditioner intact. However, you may face a challenge in finding a reliable mechanic. Service My Car is here to serve your car service requirements.
