Faulty BMW Electrical Systems
BMW Repair in Walnut Creek, CA
The Reality of Electrical Problems
Even though your traditionally powered automobile runs on fossil fuel, did you know that one of the most common auto repairs deals with faulty electrical systems? Actually, your vehicle has more electrical components than you might think. This can be particularly troubling for BMW enthusiasts, who list issues with these as one of their top complaints. Even so, keeping your car's electrical elements in good operating order or repairing them when something goes wrong is no problem. The team of ASE-certified technicians at German Sport in Walnut Creek, California, can help you with electrical issues and all of your other mechanical BMW repairs.
Potential Problems
Although almost anything can go wrong with any auto--especially as the car ages--you are nearly sure to experience an electrical issue at some point since your vehicle is so dependent upon electrical components and systems. For instance, the ability to start the automobile relies on the battery and starter motor to initially turn the engine, so it takes in air for combustion. The battery also powers auxiliary components and sends the electrical power needed for the spark plugs to fire, initiating the controlled explosion process in each cylinder. The process involves related components like wiring, too. Further, nearly every major system relies on electrical power for part of its operation. Examples include the air conditioner, transmission, and cooling system due to the necessity of a fan. Entertainment systems, navigation aids, and power windows and locks also require an electrical source. If any of these malfunction, you can experience problems ranging from an illuminated check engine light, blown fuse, or nonfunctional window to a car that won't start or misfires, depending upon the nature of the issue.
