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 needed diagnose burnt wiringnocrank1994CorollaPreston

$100

Preston VIC 3072, Australia

17th Jan 2026

Hi, I’m helping a friend with a 1994 Toyota Corolla AE92 automatic and I’m hoping to get some experienced auto-electrical advice or if needed assistance to make sure we’re approaching the repair the right way.Budget is for diagnosis and advice only. Happy to increase for the right expertise The car has wiring damage from an earlier cigarette lighter circuit repair that overheated and burned back into the loom. That work wasn’t done by the owner. While driving, smoke came from the dash, the car lost power, and it now won’t crank. There’s visible heat damage to several ground (earth) wires and nearby wiring behind the dash. The cigarette lighter itself doesn’t need to be reinstalled. I’m doing the hands-on work and I’m purchasing a complete compatible donor wiring section/loom now (from Pick-A-Part or similar). Before installing it, I’d really like to sanity-check the approach with someone who knows these older Toyotas well. I’m hoping someone can assist in some practical guidance or if needed possible work. This could be reviewing photos, confirming likely causes of the no-crank, and advising whether full replacement versus targeted repair makes the most sense and if so possible assistance to help Happy to pay for phone advice, photo review, or general diagnostic guidance. Photos are available and I’m easy to work with. Thanks in advance, and please get in touch if you have solid experience with older Toyota electrical systems. Location is 19-33 Murray Rd, Preston VIC 3072

Auto Electrician required to help complete van wiring loom rewrap.

$280

Epping, New South Wales

6th Jan 2026

2005 Ford Transit restoration. I've completed about 90% of the wiring loom rewrap. At 64yo I'm having problems getting under the dash and into the engine bay. The Dash and instrument cluster have been removed to gain access to the loom at the back and under the dash. I need someone who can help finish the rewrap in electrical tape. ie. stronger back than mine. Will require getting under the van for things like horn, loom connectors etc. I estimate about 3hrs to complete. But willing to pay as required. Note: Anyone who is car minded and good with electrical tape should also apply.
