If you are looking for Auto Electrical work, then look no further. Jethro is a very kind and experienced Tasker and an expert in this field. From the beginning he was very helpful with giving me advice on equipment. throughout the job he was very professional and you had the reassurance that he was doing a very through job. He goes above and beyond in making sure the end result is what you are looking for. My install of a dual battery system in my CX5 was a unique challenge and Jethro did it with ease. At the end of the job he gave me advice on maintenance to ensure longevity and the rookie that i am was bombarding him with questions and he was always willing to share his knowledge. Really good experience and i will go to him in the future for my auto electrical mods. 5 stars isn't enough for him/

Dual Battery Install

Wow, top notch installs does a great job, had my dash cam (2 channel) installed and some lightforce HTX2's installation was perfect, soldered wires and heat crimed the new wires to make them waterproof. If you need a job done, use Jethro, you definitely won't be disappointed

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.

The ute stopped working and is sitting on the street. Dad and a friend took the new battery out to charge it. The battery has been sitting charged in the garage for 2 months and not returned to the ute. Looking for someone to put the battery back into the car and see if it starts.

Day and time you can attend 3. Offer price (if different to requested) 4. Anything else I should know to make a decision Thank you 🙏🏼
