How to Choose Automotive Alternators & Generators
--What are Automotive Alternators & Generators?--
Every automotive vehicle needs electricity to operate. The electrical system of a vehicle consists of a battery and an alternator, except in vehicles earlier than 1970, when most of them had generators instead of alternators. The alternator is connected to the engine by a belt and generates electricity to recharge the battery. The battery makes 12-volt power available to everything in the car needing electricity, including the ignition system, radio, headlights, windshield wipers, power windows and seats, computers, etc., through the vehicle's wiring. The vehicle's alternator or generator produces that energy, and supplies the electricity that charges the vehicle's battery. Automobiles build before the early 70's typically used a DC generator to drive the vehicle's electric system. A further advance occurred when the DC generator was replaced by the combination of an alternator and a voltage regulator. This gave a more reliable power source capable of handling greater loads, and was the impetus to electrify more and more vehicle subsystems which had hitherto been driven by other sources of power. This availability encouraged the use of other electrical accessories, such as lighting (which had previously been through oil lamps or acetylene lamps) and the automobile self starter.
--If Your Alternators & Generators are Defective--
When a vehicle's alternator or generator breaks or malfunctions, the vehicle should be brought to an automotive repair shop. There, trained automotive repair technicians can determine what is causing the problem, and whether or not the alternator or generator should be repaired or replaced.

If you need a battery or alternator for your car, then you should contact one of the many companies that sell them. You may need to talk to a representative of the company to make sure that you are getting the alternator or battery that has the right voltage for your auto. If you have a foreign car, then you might have to talk to exporters or importers to get the one that's right for your car. You might also need to check with a mechanic to make sure that it is your alternator or battery that needs to be replaced instead of the rotor, rectifier, ignition, or crankshaft. Sometimes when the rotor, rectifier, ignition, or crankshaft is malfunctioning, people who aren't experienced with auto maintenance might assume that the problem is with the alternator or battery.
