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.

Hi, I need an auto electrician to inspect and test the Redarc BCDC charger installed in my 2007 Mercedes Sprinter. I want to confirm it’s wired correctly, charging properly, and still working as it should. If the unit is faulty or not performing well, I may need it replaced, so I’d also like advice on the best replacement option and a quote for installation. Looking for someone who knows 12V systems and camper/van setups. Thanks.

Headlights on LTH2038 Stopped working

$10

Wantirna VIC, Australia

23rd Nov 2025

Hi Everyone, I hope someone can help me with my rideon mower, my Headlights have stopped working and I don't know why. The globes are fine and I have ran a lead straight to the plug that leads to the headlights and they work both of them. But from the battery to the switch it has stopped working, it could be a lose wire or something has stopped working but would like someone that has something like this happen to them or someone with the time to come and have a look at it. I do also want to install a pole that has a beacon on top of it, so when I do turn on the headlights or have it on its own switch so I can turn it on when I am working near the road with the ride mower. Please note the budget price isn't the real price: Please quote a price but if its to high, I won't accept it but also happy to pay with the notes

Installation of electric boat winch into Caddy Van

$30

Nunawading VIC 3131, Australia

23rd Oct 2025

Hi This is a bit of an unusual one. I am a disabled person & I ride a recumbent trike. I have a LWB Caddy Cargo Van that I want to use to transport the trike around Melbourne, Victoria, & beyond. The trike fits well & I have wheel chair ramps I can use to roll it up & into the van. I dont have the strength to do this & have decided the best way would be to install a small boat winch (electric, with remote) on the cabin wall & use this to winch the trike in. It is 2m long & weighs 35kg. I am looking for someone who would love to do a rewarding project like this, figure out exactly how it would work & then wire, install, test etc. I am yet to buy the winch but have done research of plenty. If this is of interest, please let me know.

Matt is an absolute legend. He went totally above abs beyond. Brilliant communication, super fast.
