What do ignition system repair services include?
A vehicle ignition system ignites or fires the spark plugs to start up the engine. With a damaged ignition system, an engine may stop running correctly. Further, ignition system damage could be the reason a car will not start.
Ignition system repair concerns two main parts. The first one is the ignition switch, where a driver places and turns a key to start a car. And the second main part is the electronic ignition, which powers the starter. Here’s a list of common ignition repairs you can book on Airtasker.
Ignition system assessment
If you’re not sure what’s wrong with your ignition system, a mechanic can come over to assess the issue. Afterwards, they can give you a rough quote for the repair so you can plan. Your Tasker can also help you source the materials for the best prices. When you’re ready to pay for an ignition system repair, feel free to post another request on Airtasker. You can find many experienced, rated, and reviewed mechanics on our platform.
Spark plug replacement
Spark plugs may be small, but they are crucial to getting an engine to start. Bad spark plugs can cause difficulty in starting a car, unusual vibrations under the bonnet, increased fuel consumption, and other auto problems. These tiny parts tend to go through wear and tear over time, which is why you’ll have to replace them at some point. Spark plug replacement generally involves removing and replacing the spark plugs. Your mechanic may also inspect the engine head threads and ignition wires. Then, the mechanic will test the vehicle to make sure everything is working correctly.
Ignition cable replacement
Faulty ignition cables can cause the same problems as bad spark plugs. For this reason, your mechanic should also check the ignition cables when replacing spark plugs. Ignition cable failure is often a result of defective parts in the surrounding area. Replacing an ignition cable is a straightforward process. Typically, your mechanic will use special testing tools to check each cable. Then, they will replace the bad cables with new ones.
Ignition lock repair or replacement
The ignition lock is the part where you insert your key. If you’re having problems adding or removing the key from the ignition, you might have a bad ignition lock cylinder. A faulty ignition lock cylinder may also be the reason behind a car’s inability to start, a hot ignition switch, or engine shutting off during travel.
Ignition coil replacement
Water entry or old spark plugs are common reasons for ignition coil failure. Ignition coil failure is a standard car problem, which sometimes prevents an engine from starting. A bad ignition coil can also cause engine sputtering, shaking, or misfiring. If you have a faulty ignition coil, you should get a replacement. Also, consider getting a spark plug replacement to preserve your ignition coils.

Ignition overheating
$500
Mount Martha VIC 3934, Australia
17th Mar 2026
I just bought a second hand 2003 Hyundai accent GL. The rego is SIQ952. It came with a RWC and minor service was just done by my usual mechanic. The mechanic had disconnected and reconnected the battery during the RWC. I picked it up on Friday, everything was fine. On Saturday I hadn’t driven it until the afternoon. I drove it for about 15/20mins. Once I had parked the car I had noticed that the key was very noticeably warm/hot, as well as the ignition was warm. However It was fine on the 20min drive back home later that evening. Then yesterday I drove it again to work 20mins and everything was as usual. But then driving it back home the key and ignition got warm only after driving a couple mins from work. Today I’ve driven it to my mechanic and back, but it did not warm up and my mechanic was unsure what it could be as a result of it not warming up again. Should this be a cause For concern? Could I bring the car in to you? It seems that not every drive it warms up but majority of the time it’s when we use the radio that it does. However today I’ve used the radio and it’s been fine again.
