The Basics of Car Battery Care

Like any other vital system in your vehicle, your car battery requires regular maintenance in order to remain in good working condition. Your car battery maintenance procedure should start by checking the charge of the battery. If the battery charge is low, this loss of charge could be the result of low battery fluid, excessive heat, or corrosive build-up on the surface of the battery. To ensure that your battery is in great working order, you can clean any corrosive material off of the surface of your battery using a soft brush. You can also protect your battery from the strain of excessive heat by covering it with a specially designed insulator.
