Auto Electrician in Wokingham

We carry out auto electrical fault finding and repairs for Wokingham drivers at our workshop just up the A329 in Bracknell. We find the fault properly and explain it in plain English before we fix anything, rather than swapping parts and hoping.

Short town journeys and tired batteries

Short stop-start trips round town are hard on batteries, because the engine rarely runs long enough to put back what starting took out. Over a winter that turns into slow cranking, then a car that will not start on a cold morning. Before replacing the battery we test it and the charging system, because a weak alternator or a poor connection can kill a brand new battery as well. If the battery is the problem we will say so, and if it is not we will tell you what is.

If you need a car electrician in Wokingham, we are about five miles away on London Road in Bracknell. We also cover Winnersh, Barkham, Finchampstead, Emmbrook and Woosehill, all within reach of the workshop.

Auto electrics in Wokingham: common questions

How far is your workshop from Wokingham?

Our workshop is on London Road in Bracknell, about five miles from Wokingham via the A329 London Road. Call 07758 833 127 and we will tell you what we need to know before you bring the car in.

My car keeps going flat, can you find out why?

Yes. A battery that keeps going flat is usually either a tired battery, a charging fault or something drawing power when the car is switched off. We test all three, measure the drain and trace it to the circuit responsible, rather than just fitting a new battery and hoping.

Do you work on classic cars?

Yes. We fault-find older systems that have no fault codes to read, repair or replace wiring looms, and deal with dynamos, regulators, positive earth cars and ignition conversions. We will also help get a car that has been off the road back to running safely.

Can you fit a dash cam or reversing camera?

Yes. We fit dash cams, chargers, reversing cameras and parking sensors, wired in neatly and powered from the right place so they do not drain the battery when the car is parked.

How much does auto electrical diagnosis cost?

It depends on the fault. We give you a clear price before we start, so call 07758 833 127 and tell us what the car is doing.
