Batteries – 12V – Duns

12V batteries in hybrid vehicles play a crucial role in powering essential systems such as the car’s electronics, lights, and starting the internal combustion engine when required.

Unlike traction batteries (also known as EV batteries), which are designed to store and deliver high voltage for driving the electric motor, starter batteries operate on 12-volt systems and handle lower loads. They ensure seamless operation of the vehicle’s auxiliary functions and act as a backup to the hybrid system.

Common issues with starter batteries include reduced capacity over time, difficulty starting the engine, or complete failure. You might notice symptoms such as dimming headlights, slow cranking of the engine, or warning lights on the dashboard. In some cases, the battery may fail to hold a charge, indicating the need for replacement.

At Adam Green Motors EV, we’re experienced in diagnosing and fixing issues with starter batteries in hybrid vehicles. Our experienced technicians use advanced diagnostic tools to accurately assess battery health and recommend the most suitable solution.
