Battery Service
Power Up With Professional Battery Service
Your vehicle’s battery is the lifeline of its electrical system. It powers your ignition, dashboard, lights, and every electronic function. But over time, batteries degrade — and when they do, they can leave you stranded.
At Stone Automotive, we offer comprehensive battery diagnostics, testing, maintenance, and replacement services to keep your car dependable and ready for the road.
How Does a Vehicle Battery Work?
Your car’s battery stores energy and delivers it when you need it most — starting the engine and running essential electronics. Once the engine is running, the alternator recharges the battery while you drive.
Most vehicles today use lead-acid batteries, which generate power through a chemical reaction between lead plates and an electrolyte solution. A healthy battery should hold around 12.6 volts when off and several volts more when running.
Any voltage drop, flickering lights, or slow starts can signal that the battery’s health is declining. Our experts at Stone Automotive use battery voltage testing and load diagnostics to identify these issues quickly.
Warning Signs You Need Battery Service
If your battery is nearing the end of its lifespan, your vehicle may begin showing one or more of these red flags:
🔋 Slow or Sluggish Starts
If your engine takes longer to turn over or you hear clicking when turning the key, your battery voltage may be too low.
⚠️ Dashboard Warning Light or Check Engine Light
Battery issues can trigger the check engine light or a specific battery symbol. Don’t ignore these — visit Stone Automotive
for diagnostics.
😷 Unusual Odor
A rotten egg smell may indicate a battery acid leak. Our team can safely remove and
recycle your old battery and install a new one.
🚗 Vehicle Starts Then Dies
Your battery may provide just enough power to start but not sustain engine electronics, causing a stall. A quick multimeter test can help us isolate the cause.
⚡ Corrosion on Battery Terminals
Build-up of green or white powder around your battery terminals is a sign of battery corrosion, which interferes with power flow and should be cleaned professionally.
If you experience any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Battery problems can worsen quickly and leave you stranded.

- Battery Voltage & Load Testing

This small step can save you from a big headache later.
