Auto Electrical Repair Birmingham

We trace electrical faults to the source: battery drain, damaged wiring, blown fuses, faulty relays or failing modules. We test before we replace, repair the wiring where possible, and check the whole circuit afterwards.

When you need this

  • Battery keeps going flat
  • Lights, wipers or sensors failing
  • Burning smell or repeated blown fuses

How it works

  1. Describe what happens and when.
  2. We test battery, charging, wiring and modules.
  3. We repair or replace only what is proven faulty.
  4. Everything is tested again before we leave.

In detail

We start every job by testing the battery and charging system, because many ‘electrical’ faults are really a weak battery. Then we work through the circuit with a multimeter — checking fuses, relays, earth points and the wiring loom for breaks, corrosion or water damage. Intermittent faults take longer to pin down than dead circuits, since the fault has to be caught while it is happening. We repair damaged wiring where it is safe to do so, and we always re-test the whole circuit before we leave.

Questions about auto electrical repair

Do you work as a mobile auto electrician in Birmingham?

Yes. We come to your home, work or roadside anywhere in Birmingham and the West Midlands. Most electrical diagnosis and repair is done on site at your car. You get a fixed quote before we travel.

My car won’t start — is it electrical?

Often, yes. A dead battery, a failed starter motor or a broken connection will all stop a car starting with no warning. We test the battery, starter and charging circuit first to find which one has failed. Then we repair or replace only what is proven faulty.

Why does my car battery keep going flat?

Three usual causes: a worn-out battery that no longer holds charge, an alternator (the part that recharges the battery while you drive) that has stopped charging, or a parasitic drain — something still drawing power after you switch off. We test all three so you only replace what has actually failed.

Can you find an intermittent electrical fault?

Yes, though it takes longer than a fault that is present all the time. We check the usual suspects first — loose earth points, corroded connectors and damaged wiring — then monitor the circuit until the fault shows itself. Intermittent work is quoted honestly: we explain what we found and what is still uncertain.

Do you repair wiring damaged by rodents or bad aftermarket fitting?

Yes. Chewed insulation and badly fitted alarms, stereos or tow bars are common causes of shorts and blown fuses. We cut out the damaged section, rejoin the wiring properly with sealed connections, and check the circuit is drawing the correct current before we sign it off.

How much will the repair cost?

It depends on the fault, so we never guess over the phone. Tell us the symptoms and your reg, and we give you a fixed quote before we travel. The price is confirmed again before any work starts, and you pay once everything is tested working.
