We was asked to look at why the ABS light was on a T5. We scanned the vehicle for codes and found a Fault code 00290 was stored in the system the ABS module was inspected first of all and we found the ABS module had previously been sent for repair. We then proceeded with caution, the rear left plug for the ABS were checked and we found the release clip for the plug was broken. As such we know someone else has been in here before us testing / checking the […]
Another Auto Electrician said this Vauxhall Combo needed a replacement module @ £700 Fitted. They diagnosed this one very wrong and as such wanted someone else to take a look. The fault was located as a bad contact on the main flasher / indicator relay. We pulled the relay apart and cleaned the internal contacts and the relay is now working perfectly again. As a safety measure we recommended a replacement relay incase it fails again in the future. However the customer was very happy he didn’t have to […]
A set of Cobra / Vodafone automotive sensors were fitted to this brand new Mitsubshi Outlander, and the customer was very impressed with the finish and said the sensors look better than the factory option which can be fitted when the vehicle is being made! The sensors were neatly positioned along the top of the bumper to give a factory appearance. These sensors become active when the reverse gear is selected meaning there is no input required from the driver, simply select reverse and park with complete […]

Some customers are just looking to keep their insurance happy or want a tracker thats not wired into the vehicles electrics. The Meta Trak Pulsar is perfect for this purpose, the device has it’s own onboard battery which is designed to last 3 years this means once the included 3 year subscription has ended you simply remove the device or buy another due to it being more cost effective.
We visited a Range Rover which had a very old Laserline installed. It done very well being over 20 years old at least. Sadly the system started false alarming and the owner had to remove the siren, once he done this the vehicle stopped starting and as such attempted to start removing the system himself. But decided it was far to involved, as such we fully removed all the connections made and re soldered the original loom back together meaning the alarm and immobiliser was completely removed and as such this won’t […]
We went out to a Caterham 7 which was suffering a engine crank, no start. The engine would turn over as normal but simply wouldn’t come to life. The customer had done alot of research online trying to find the reason why the engine wouldn’t start. And as such he swapped relays, cut certain parts of the wiring loom and tried many internet known fixes. Sadly he didn’t fix the issue and turned to us for a correct diagnostic. We carried out […]
