A: Technically speaking, your car battery doesn’t recharge itself. However, your alternator the key part that assists with that. If your experiencing difficulties with your battery losing its charge, the issue is your alternator.

Q: My headlights still turn on, but it won’t start. Is my battery dead?


A: If you see that your headlights are still on then this is a sign that your battery still has a charge. However, it is not functioning as it should. Dim lights are an indication that your battery is on its way out. Likewise, if your car isn’t starting it is a clear sign that your starter and alternator have gone bad.
