Warning signs guide

How do I know my car battery is dying?

Slow cranking, dim lights and repeated flat batteries can all be signs that your battery is struggling.

01 / Starting

Slow cranking

If the engine takes longer than usual to turn over, the battery may be losing starting power.

02 / Lights

Dim lights

Headlights or interior lights that look weaker than normal can point to the battery or the charging system.

03 / Sounds

A click, then nothing

Repeated clicking when you turn the key can mean there isn’t enough power to start the engine.

A warning sign doesn’t always mean a new battery.

A test shows what’s actually happening before you spend money.
