OEM Mercedes-Benz Alternators Store

Wondering how an alternator works? Maybe you think your luxury car alternator is on the fritz and needs replacement. The alternator is a key component to your vehicle's ability to charge the battery while you drive.

How an Alternator Works

Your car alternator is essentially a motor that is used to transfer energy. The serpentine belt spins a rotor connected to the alternator housing. This rotor turns at a fast rate, spinning two electromagnets around a coil. The evolutions then transfer AC power into usable DC power that is circulated to certain components of your vehicle such as the a/c water pump, windshield wipers, dash lights, and powered windows.

What are the Signs of a Bad Alternator?

Alternators can usually last up to 100,000 miles before showing signs of age and malfunction. Depending on your model year, your alternator could die sooner. Some of the sure signs pointing to alternator failure will be clicking or high-pitched whining noises when starting your car. This means that the rotor or serpentine belt is on the fritz. You will likely have a dead battery and or electrical surges and shortages if your alternator begins to decline. If this occurs, seek inspection of your drivebelts and alternator immediately.
