What does an auto electrician 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 electrical businesses 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 an 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 technician 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 technician 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. 

Car electrics

Having trouble with auto electrics such as central locking, cruise control, windscreen wipers, power windows and mirrors? Your auto technician 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 electrician. 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 automotive 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 vehicle to a safe location for further work.

Double check a DIY campervan electrical system installation

£500

Hackney, Greater London, E8

30th Apr 2025

I've started installing electrical system for a self-built camper van conversion based on a diagram provided to me by the suppliers of the electrical system. I've got everything installed (inverter, charger, solar panel, MPPT, battery switch, positive and negative bus bars, external hookup, consumer unit, midi fuses, mega fuses, fuse box, etc.) However, i need help with two things: 1) I don't know how to connect the split charger to the van battery and I need someone to help with that. I've already got the device and all the correct size cables and bits you will need. I just need to connect the charger thingy to the positive of the van battery, but I don't know how to access the van battery and I'm too scared to mess with it. It's a Ford Transit 2019 version. 2) I would like the same person to be able to double check all my installation to confirm I've done it correctly, and if not, rectify them (I understand there might be additional cost if that's the situation). It must be someone with camper van building and successful camper electrical installation experience. In addition, if achievable within budget (we can discuss a reasonable cost), it would be nice if the same person can also help finish the second part of the installation by connecting 2 LED lights, water pump, fridge, thermometer, and 2 plug sockets to the fuse box.

Car battery is dead, needs a new battery to start.

£250

Hackney, Greater London, E8

13th Apr 2025

My Audi Q3 (2015, reg: EA64LFF) has a dead battery – it’s the original, 10 years old, and very likely needs replacing. I need someone who can: - Supply and fit a compatible AGM or EFB battery - Confirm compatibility with the car’s start/stop system - Advise whether battery registration or coding is required, and complete it if needed Requirements: - Experience working with modern vehicles (especially Audi or VW group) - Ability to supply a high-quality AGM or EFB battery (Bosch/Varta preferred but open to options) - Tools for coding/registration, if required Timing: Ideally ASAP – flexible on date/time Please include: - The battery you’d plan to install - Whether your quote includes coding/registration (if needed) - Whether you have experience with similar jobs

George arrived 10minutes early, communicated clearly, completed the job in no time (battery change) and also helpfully ran some diagnostics for me advising what other pieces need to be flagged at MOT. Will not hesitate to recommend him and use him again in the future.
