← Understand your car and road lifeThe 12-volt battery and starting faults
- The low-voltage battery supplies control systems and, in many combustion cars, the starter. An electric car also needs low-voltage power even with energy in its traction battery.
- Clicks, dim lamps or no start can have several causes. Repeated long starting attempts can drain the battery further; check the handbook and arrange diagnosis instead of assuming one failed part.
- Jump-start terminals and procedures differ by vehicle. Use the manufacturer’s method or assistance; never treat an EV traction battery or orange high-voltage cables as jump-start connections.
