Alternator Supply, Fitting & Inspection — FLEETDOC Keeps You Moving

When your vehicle’s alternator fails, it doesn’t just drain your battery — it can stop your business or journey altogether. At FLEETDOC Ltd, Peterborough, we provide professional alternator supply, fitting, and system inspection services to keep your car, van, or fleet reliable, safe, and powered up.

Why Alternator Health Matters

The alternator powers essential systems in your vehicle: lights, dashboard electronics, sensors, infotainment, and charging ports. A weak alternator leads to:

• Sudden breakdowns and downtime

• Battery drain and failure

• Electrical glitches (dim lights, dashboard errors)

• Increased maintenance costs

For commercial vehicles and fleets, alternator reliability is crucial for uptime and operational efficiency.

Signs Your Alternator May Be Failing

Drivers often search for early warning signs. Watch out for:

• Dashboard battery warning light (or “ALT/GEN”)

• Dimming or flickering headlights

• Difficulty starting or frequent jump starts

• Strange noises from the engine bay (whining or grinding)

• Electrical systems cutting out (radio, aircon, power windows)

• Battery dying even after replacement

If you spot one or more of these, it’s time to book an alternator check with FLEETDOC.
