Winter maintenance is not the time to neglect battery maintenance.
Energizer, one of the brands of Johnson Controls, one of the world's largest manufacturers of automotive starter batteries, and offered for sale in Turkey with the assurance of Brisa, warns car owners about 'battery maintenance' in winter. Regular maintenance is required for all electric functions like the starter motor and ignition as well as radio.
Experts warn that vehicle owners should not neglect battery maintenance. They say it increases the risk of accidents and staying on the roads in winter.
Experts emphasize the need for expert assistance when replacing a battery. Although it was possible to replace a battery yourself a few years back, vehicle owners now have more complex electrical systems, as well as comfort, entertainment, and environmentally-friendly technologies like Start-Stop. To replace a dead battery properly, you will need to have the right tools and knowledge. If you have multiple vehicles that are using the new system, it may be difficult to register your battery with the system. If the electrical current between your battery and your vehicle's computer system is disrupted, it may cause data loss in vehicle control units and electronic equipment. It is possible that electronic components like radios and windows will need to be reprogrammed.
