1. Battery
When
your car's engine is off, the battery provides the required power to
the rest of the system, as well as during start-up (cranking). It also
supplements the power from the charging system during periods of high
demand.
2. Charging System
This is the heart of the
electrical system. It consists of three main components: the
belt-driven alternator, various electrical circuits, and a voltage
regulator. The alternator supplies power to the electrical system and
recharges the battery after your car has started. Just like it sounds,
the voltage regulator controls the voltage, keeping it within the
operating range of the electrical system.
3. Starting System
This system consumes more electrical
power than any other in your car. The starting system consists of three
components which work in tandem: the ignition switch, the starter relay
or solenoid, and the starter motor. The ignition switch controls the
starter solenoid, which activates the starter motor. The starter motor
then turns the engine until your car starts.
