Signs of a Failing Voltage Regulator in a BMW Car
Description:
The incorporation of the latest technology and luxury features have made BMW to stay ahead of other German-made rides in terms of dependability. Among various pats present in BMW, the voltage regulator is on the key components that helps in regulating the charging voltage produced by the alternator. So many things including a faulty alternator, an old battery, etc. can cause the voltage regulator to fail. Its failure comes with certain symptoms that you can know by going through this . Let’s have a look. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

SIGNS OF A FAILING VOLTAGE REGULATOR IN A BMW CAR
2
Uncontrolled generation of electrical energy by
an alternator could damage the electrical
components of a BMW.
3
The voltage regulator is a critical component of
the electrical system of a BMW.
4
It keeps the electrical power supply to different
types of electronic components between 13.4V and
15.5V.
5
By doing so, it prevents any kinds of major
damages to those expensive electronic components
of a BMW.
6
However, a failing or defective voltage regulator
could not do its job properly as a result of
which it could cause damage.
7
So, signs of a failing voltage regulator in a BMW
should not be neglected and such kinds of faulty
components should be replaced immediately.

FAILING VOLTAGE REGULATOR IN A BMW

VOLTAGE OUTPUT FLUCTUATES
10
Generally, the power output by a BMW battery
should be 12.5V while the car is not running.
11
Voltage output should be about 14.5V if the car
is running.
12
However, if the power output inclines beyond this
limit, then it clearly indicates that the voltage
regulator of the BMW is failing.
13
Besides, power output could also decline beyond
the minimal requirement of a BMW vehicle.
14
Such kinds of unpredictable power fluctuations
should not be neglected and timely actions should
be taken to fix such errors.
15
FLICKERING LIGHTS
16
Fluctuation of power supply due to a faulty
voltage regulator is solely responsible for
dimming or flickering headlights, interior lights
and gauges.
17
Such kinds of power fluctuations should not be
neglected as it could cause irreparable damages
to the expensive components of a BMW car.
18
Replacement of a faulty voltage regulator is the
only solution.
19
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARS
20
Numerous factors are responsible for the
illumination of check engine light on the
dashboard of a BMW.
21
A faulty voltage regulator is one of the possible
reasons for the appearance of such an important
warning light.
22
Root causes behind the appearance of such a
crucial warning light should be identified and
repaired immediately.
23
BOTTOM LINE
24
Voltage regulator is an integral part of the
electrical system of a BMW.
25
It regulates the power output and thus keeps the
electrical system functional.
26
Faulty or failing voltage regulators should be
replaced immediately.
