San Pedro Car Service Offers Nationwide Repair Warranty

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) December 11, 2009 -- Few things are more frustrating than discovering your car won’t start, especially when you’re late for an important meeting. Whether the problem is simply a dead battery or something more serious such as an internal engine problem, your San Pedro car service and repair center provides a nationwide repair warranty for all customers.

My Car Won’t Start: Now What?

You’re running late for work. You rush out of the house, hop in the car, turn the key, and . . . nothing happens. There are a few simple things you can do yourself, including checking the battery and ignition switch, to try to fix the problem. If you still can’t start the car, it’s time to call the San Pedro car service specialists. Here are a few reasons why your car won’t start:
• Dead Battery: The most common cause for a car not starting is a dead battery. Try jump-starting the car. If it starts right away, you probably just have a dead battery. Replace it and you’ll be on your way!
• Battery Corrosion: The car won’t start if the battery’s connection with the rest of the electrical system is blocked by corrosion. Clean the battery posts and try to start the car. If it still won’t start, the problem isn’t your battery.

• Ignition Switch: If it’s not the battery, the problem may be a bad ignition switch. If red warning lights don’t illuminate on your dash when you turn the key to the “on” position, the ignition switch is probably faulty and needs to be replaced.
• Starter: If the ignition switch is working properly, the starter motor may have failed or the motor wire may simply have a bad connection. Call the San Pedro car service professionals for a thorough inspection.
• Fuel Pump: A faulty fuel pump may also be the culprit, especially if the starter cranks normally but the engine doesn’t start.
• Fuel Filter: If the fuel pump is working but gas still isn’t reaching the engine, the fuel filter may be clogged and needs to be replaced.

Of course, there are many other causes (don’t forget to check the gas gauge!) ranging from basic to more extensive repairs. If you can’t assess and repair the problem yourself, call your San Pedro car service experts to get you safely back on the road.
