Find the electrical fault

Vehicle Electrical Fault Finding in Newcastle

We inspect vehicle electrical faults, trace wiring problems and carry out repairs at our Jesmond workshop and on suitable mobile call-outs across Newcastle.

Start with the symptoms

Similar problems can have different causes

A starting problem, warning light or intermittent fault does not always mean one particular part has failed.

We check the affected electrical system and trace the fault before deciding what needs repairing.

Fault tracing

How we find electrical faults

The checks depend on the vehicle and the problem reported.

1

Confirm the problem

Check when the fault occurs and what the vehicle does.

2

Test the affected system

Inspect the relevant wiring, connections, power supplies and components.

3

Repair the fault

Explain what was found and carry out the required electrical repair.

Intermittent faults

Tell us when the fault appears. Useful details include if the vehicle is hot or cold, moving or stationary, or if a particular electrical item is being used.

Useful fault details

Tell us exactly what you notice

Include the warning message, any sounds or changes, how often the fault occurs and if the vehicle still drives.

Tell us if anyone has already checked or repaired the vehicle.
