Ford Ranger Automotive Batteries

Electrical current plays a crucial role in the operation of your Ford Ranger pickup truck. It ignites the fuel-and-air mixture, powers the headlights and stereo, and so on. The electrical system could never do without its first and foremost source of power – the battery. There are several signs which can inform you about the fact that your vehicle’s battery is going bad. First, your pickup truck’s engine can crank slowly when you turn the ignition key. It is the perfect sign of the need of using the jumper cables to jump-start your Ford Ranger. If your starter motor does not show signs of even trying to crank the engine, and your lights don’t turn on, it means that your battery is dead.

In such a case, the battery just doesn’t have enough juice to do anything. Third, if your vehicle starts up fine one day, but won’t the other, then you need to double-check the battery terminals for signs of corrosion, damage, loose contact, or calcification. Fourth, your battery is losing charge in cold weather. Cranking the engine becomes a fairly hard task for your battery. And fifth, if you have already jump-started your auto several times per week already, and the battery keeps on malfunctioning, then now would be the time to replace it altogether. There are plenty of Ford Ranger batteries offered in our online store, so you can shop with confidence!
