What are the signs of a faulty generator in the Magotan?

Magotan car generator failure symptoms: 1. Dimming headlights or dashboard lights: The alternator is part of the vehicle's electrical system. Its main function is to provide power to operate the starter, ignition, and all electronic accessories. If the generator fails, the headlights or dashboard lights will begin to dim. Once the instrument lights or headlights become dim, this is a clear sign of potential alternator failure. 2. Battery or accumulator damage: A car battery, as a supplement to the generator, can only charge up to the point where the battery can accept the charge. If the battery is undercharged or dead, the vehicle will continue to run, but after a short time, the lights will dim again, indicating a problem with the charging system. If the vehicle has difficulty starting after the battery is fully charged, this issue may be related to the alternator. 3. Car generator belt: The alternator works in conjunction with a system belt. If the belt does not rotate freely, excess friction will cause the belt to heat up, producing a burning rubber smell. If you detect a smell similar to an electrical fire, this may indicate that the alternator pulley is slipping on the belt, resulting in poor generator output.
