DON'T WAIT FOR A FLAT BATTERY
A Weak Car Battery Can Still Start Your Vehicle
A battery can continue starting normally while gradually losing performance. Queensland heat, short trips, battery age and electrical accessories can all affect battery health. Testing can help identify declining performance before it turns into an inconvenient breakdown.

KNOW THE WARNING SIGNS
Signs Your Car Battery May Need Testing
A weak battery does not always fail without warning. These common symptoms may indicate that it is worth having your battery or charging system checked.
01
STARTING
Slow Engine Cranking
If the engine turns over more slowly than usual, the battery may be losing the power required for reliable starting.
02
RECENT PROBLEM
Recently Needed A Jump-Start
A recent jump-start can be a sign of a weak battery, an undercharged battery or another electrical issue worth investigating.
03
DASH WARNING
Battery Or Charging Warning Light
A battery or charging warning light may indicate an issue with the charging system rather than the battery alone.
04
BATTERY AGE
Not Sure How Old Your Battery Is?
If the battery's age or history is unknown, testing can provide useful information about its current condition.
05
BEFORE A LONG DRIVE
Preparing For A Long Trip?

Don't Guess With Your Battery.

A Battery Test Doesn't Automatically Mean You Need A New Battery
The purpose of testing is to understand the battery's condition. If it is performing correctly, we'll let you know. If performance is declining, you'll have the opportunity to address it before it becomes an unexpected breakdown.
