Electrical
Batteries, charging, starting, lighting, climate control and the electronics that run a modern European car, traced with factory-supplied diagnostic software.
The work
What's included
Electrical faults are rarely where they appear. A flat battery can be a module that never sleeps. A warning in the instrument cluster can come from a sensor at the other end of the car.
We trace faults with factory-supplied software and circuit testing, so the repair fixes the cause, not the symptom.
Many European cars need a new battery registered to the car, and some replacement modules need to be coded. We do that with the factory software as part of the job.

Pricing
Priced after inspection
Priced after diagnosis. Electrical faults are quoted once the cause is confirmed, never on a guess.
Process
How it works
Scan
We read every module on the car and note each stored fault, not only the one on the dash.
Trace
Circuits, connectors and components are tested to find the cause.
Report
You receive the diagnosis by text or email, with photos, video and our recommendation.
Repair and program
Parts you approve are fitted and, where the car requires it, registered or coded with factory software.
Confirm
Faults are cleared and the system is checked again before the car is returned.

Questions
Why does my car's battery keep going flat?
Either the battery is at the end of its life, the charging system is not keeping up, or something is drawing power with the car switched off. We test all three, so the new battery is not the next one to go flat.
Does a new battery need to be registered to my car?
On many European cars, yes. The car adjusts how it charges based on the battery's type and age. Registering the new battery keeps charging correct and protects its life. We register it as part of the replacement where the car requires it.
Why have several warning lights come on at once?
Often a low battery voltage, a failing sensor shared by several systems, or a communication fault between modules. A full scan shows which module reported first.
My air conditioning blows warm. What is wrong?
It can be low refrigerant from a leak, a failing compressor, an electrical fault or a problem inside the dashboard. We diagnose the system before recharging it, so the fix lasts.
Can you repair power windows and door locks?
Yes. Power windows, door lock actuators and other power accessories are part of our service menu.
Do you work on hybrid systems?
Yes. High-voltage battery testing and conditioning and high-voltage cable inspection are part of our hybrid service menu.
