Alternator
Alternator functions as the heart of the charging system.It produces alternating current (AC), which is converted to Direct Current (DC) by a six diode rectifier. Thus alternator generates the power required to keep the battery fully charged and to operate every electrical unit inside a vehicle.

- Alternator fails to charge (Indicator light may be on)
- Low Charging Rate (Battery may be running down)
- Excessive charging rate (Battery may have water level low)
