bostonbro Posted July 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 https://www.yourmechanic.com/question/my-battery-light-came-on-out-of-nowhere-and-i-started-smelling-smoke-by-elizabeth-g Jeff Engstrom Automotive Mechanic 12 years of experience THANK JEFF This may suggest a failing voltage regulator. The voltage regulator is a unit that regulates the charging of the battery by the alternator. When the voltage regulator is not working properly, this may result in the alternator allowing too much power to be delivered to the battery resulting in damaging wires and prematurely sometimes destroying the battery. A common sign of this is usually the acid inside the battery boiling causing the battery to swell. You may also smell a bit of smoke due to things potentially getting too hot. In other cases it may result in the alternator not supplying enough power to the battery, resulting in undercharging the battery or not charging it at all. I would recommend having an expert from YourMechanic come to your location to diagnose your vehicle’s charging system. 2007honda accord v6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
