A truck starter and alternator are two essential components of a truck's electrical system.

Truck starter and alternator repair services play a vital role in maintaining the functionality of a truck's electrical system. We can help to repair and replace the starter motor and alternator, ensuring reliable engine starting and a steady supply of electrical power while on the road.

Truck Starters

The starter is an electric motor responsible for initiating the engine's combustion process. When you turn the ignition key, an electrical signal is sent to the starter, which engages a gear called a pinion gear. The pinion gear meshes with the truck's flywheel, which is connected to the engine. As the starter motor turns the flywheel, it creates the necessary torque to crank the engine and start the combustion process. Once the engine is running, the starter disengages from the flywheel.

Truck Alternators

The alternator is a device that generates electrical power in the truck while the engine is running. Its primary function is to convert mechanical energy from the engine's rotation into electrical energy. The alternator consists of a rotor, stator, and diode assembly. As the engine spins, a belt drives the alternator's rotor, creating a magnetic field. The rotation of the rotor within the stator induces an alternating current (AC), which is then converted into direct current (DC) by the diode assembly. The DC power produced by the alternator is used to recharge the truck's battery and power the electrical systems while the engine is running.

They were incredibly helpful and professional from the outset, the administration person I talked to multiple times was exceptional.  The mechanic was thorough and their price point for the work represented good value.
