Auto electrician

$400

I highly recommend Adam. He was reliable - good communication, on time and good attention to detail. He did a great job installing the tow-bar on a Ford Escape which ended up being more complicated than expected. He was very professional, with all the equipment and tools necessary for a variety of jobs.

What do auto electricians do?

Warning lights on your dash or flickering headlights may indicate an electrical issue, or perhaps your car just won’t start. Fortunately, many auto-electricians offer a mobile service to ensure you’re not left stranded on the side of the road if something unexpected happens. 

Here are some common issues that your auto electrician can help with:

Engine electrics and brakes

It’s important to act on any warning lights on your dash, especially your anti-lock braking system (ABS) to fix any issues before they become unsafe. Firstly, your auto electrician will use a diagnostics machine to review the health of your battery, alternator, and starter motor. 

  • A flat battery can be the cause of many electrical issues but fortunately, they’re easily replaced. However, if your battery isn’t holding charge, your auto electrician will consider whether the alternator (which charges the battery when the car is running) is working.

The starter motor may be the problem if your car won’t start, and this can either be repaired or replaced. An auto electrician can complete checks on fuel pumps and your electronic fuel injection (EFI) system to repair or improve your car’s engine. 

Auto electricals

Having trouble with auto electrics such as central locking, cruise control, windscreen wipers, power windows and mirrors? Your local auto electrician will check for blown fuses or short circuits to isolate and fix the problem.

Lighting systems

Functioning lighting systems are required for safety and legal reasons, so it’s important to have any issues fixed quickly. Lighting issues are often associated with the battery and alternator. 

Car security systems

Keep your vehicle safe and secure with a car alarm and immobiliser installed by a qualified auto sparky. An alarm acts as a deterrent to car thieves and an immobiliser ensures the engine won’t start if entry is gained to the vehicle. Plus, installing a dash cam and reversing camera is another smart safety and security measure.

Emergency roadside assistance

If you find yourself stranded with a car that won’t start, a mobile auto electrician near you can help you get back on the road sooner. Their vehicle is fully-equipped with the necessary tools to diagnose the problem, so they can repair many issues on the spot. For any complex problems, you’ll need to arrange a tow truck to take your car to a safe location for further work.

Auto electrician to rewire my camper trailer

$1,500

Beacon Hill NSW 2100, Australia

21st Feb 2026

I have a 2003 Track Trailer TVAN camper trailer. The batteries are currently 2x 120Ah but there is lots of voltage drop due to the wiring being old and still the same from 2003. The batteries sit on the outside but I want to relocate them to the inside and change to lighweight/ slimline lithium batteries. It's a basic camper with 4 fixed lights on the inside, a porch light and a number of usb and cigarette lighter points. There is also a box where I can plug directly into the mains but its separate to the 12v system. Although this bix does have voltage meter on it for the batteries. I charge the car using a solar blanket but it doesn't power long enough to keep the fridge going. I essentially want to rewire, put new batteries on the inside and have it all working perfectly. I can supply the batteries

Land Rover Freelander II 2012 Electrics Issues

North Curl Curl, New South Wales

15th Feb 2026

G’day, The right hand drivers window has got clogged but the actuator is still working. It just needs this cleaned up. The alarm goes off for no reason from time to time. I’ve looked at all the hacks but they are not working. The Bluetooth is only functional after a full reset. I nor my mechanic can get the oil change light to go off even just after a service. There is a loose wire going to the left headlight but I don’t have the tools to find it. Happy to drop it off. Thanks Caine

21st Jan 2026

Hi, I’m in Belrose (Northern Beaches) and need a qualified auto electrician to come to me and diagnose issues on my 2012 VW Jetta (Petrol). Issues: Check engine light on – my OBD scanner suggests a crankshaft position sensor (CKP) / crank sensor fault. Radiator/cooling fan keeps running after the car is switched off. What I’m after: Professional diagnosis (VW/VAG scan tool preferred) Identify root cause(s) (sensor, wiring, relay/module, etc.) Provide a clear repair plan + quote for parts and labour If parts are available and agreed, complete repairs (or schedule return visit) Clear codes and confirm the fix Budget: $100 for diagnosis (call-out + diagnostic time). After diagnosis, we’ll agree a separate price for any parts and repairs before proceeding. Requirements: Licensed/insured, experienced with VW/Audi (VAG) preferred Please comment with your availability and what scan tool you use (VCDS/ODIS etc. ideal)

Gordon was excellent. I found him to be very knowledgeable, professional, and easy to deal with. He diagnosed the issues on my 2012 VW Jetta quickly, explained everything clearly. He was punctual, well prepared, and thorough in his troubleshooting. Highly recommend Gordon for any automotive work.
