When it comes to routine maintenance, alternators aren’t usually inspected. This is mainly because it is classified as a limited life span electrical component, which means there isn’t much you can do in terms of preventative measures.

The job of the alternator is to keep the battery alive and fully charged. It also supplies the other electrical elements with energy. As a result, it produces quite a bit of heat. Thanks to the integrated fan, cool air is pushed through the device to reduce the temperatures. There is also a set of vents to let the warmth escape.

One thing you do to maintain the alternator is to ensure that the aforementioned features are kept clean and remain free of any dirt, grime, debris, or grease. If anything is blocking the heat from leaving the area, it can kill the alternator quite quickly.

Another thing you do is check the condition of the connections between the alternator and the battery. Corroded or loose connectors will cause the output to drop, which makes the mechanism work harder and produce too much heat. You can disconnect them, clean them, and reattach them easily.

No matter what model you have, every vehicle comes with a gear shifter. While newer automobiles may have rotary dials, the vast majority of cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs have a knob-style version.

Allowing the vehicle to be put into different gears, the shifter is typically located in the middle of the two front seats. Sometimes, automatics may be on the righthand side of the steering wheel.

There are two types of shifters - manual and automatic. The manual unit works in unison with a clutch. You must step on the clutch pedal to disengage the gearbox from the motor. Next, you move the shifter into the appropriate gear and release the clutch. On the other hand, the automatic uses an onboard computer to complete the same task. The disengagement doesn’t have to be done manually, and no clutch is necessary.

One thing you may not be aware of is that you can swap out the knob on these components. Whether you are going for hand comfort or a style change-up, you can replace your current knob with an OEM part. There are many different designs to choose from as well.

If you are wondering what a serpentine belt is, then you have come to the right spot. This mechanism is a long, winding cincture that ties the air conditioning system, alternator, water pump, and power steering pump together. In other words, it keeps them running in perfect harmony.

Built to last a very long time, you should have to change yours out until somewhere between 60,000 and 100,000 miles. Thanks to advancements in rubber technology, the new parts are more durable than ever before. However, if yours is manually tensioned, it may need to be adjusted. Most come with a self-tensioning device, but that also might need servicing at some point due to wear and tear. One thing to keep in mind, the vehicle will not run if the belt breaks.

While the serpentine belt wears many hats, it can fray, crack, peel, or even become glazed at any point.  The following are signs of a belt that need replacing.

• Chipping or squealing - These unusual sounds happen when the serpentine belt slips out of place, has low tension, or is contaminated by antifreeze or an oil leak.
• Poor performance - If the battery suddenly drains or your power steering stops working, then your belt is compromised. This may also lead to damage to the alternator, water, air conditioning, and other components.

In any Ford vehicle, there are many different types of hoses involved. However, the one we will discuss in this article is the drain hose.

Working in unison with the air conditioning system, this particular tube serves as a conduit to transport condensation that has been accumulating in the catch out through the base of the car, truck, van, or SUV. If the catch pan is not properly drained, water can leak into the floorboard. This can cause serious damage and can lead to costly repair bills.

To prevent this, you should keep this pipe clean. If the A/C is not blowing cold air consistently or you begin to experience a bad smell, this could mean that it is time to clean out the drain hose. You will need an A/C cleaner kit, a drain pan, cabin filter replacements, protective gloves, and safety glasses/goggles.

The vehicle should be raised on a jack to expose the underbelly. Next, locate the drain hose and secure the nozzle of the cleaner car to it. Use half of the can’s contents and let it sit for five to ten minutes. Then, you can remove the nozzle and let the solution drain into the pan. At this point, you can also replace the filters and clean the vents.
