Suburbs in Armadale and Byford
Armadale grew up where Albany Highway and South Western Highway meet, and it remains the centre of the south-east corridor, with light industry in South Armadale. To the north-west, Piara Waters, Harrisdale and Seville Grove are fast-growing family suburbs, and the Forrestdale Business Park is being developed for warehouses, transport yards and heavy vehicles. Kelmscott and Roleystone climb into the Darling Scarp, where kangaroos and steep, winding roads change the driving. South along South Western Highway, Byford has hobby farms, horse properties and big new estates, now joined to the city by the extended Armadale line.

Common auto electrical jobs in Armadale and Byford
City estates, scarp roads, business parks and rural blocks all sit within a few kilometres of each other here, so the work changes from suburb to suburb.
Floats, caravans and trailers
Horse floats around Byford, caravans in Seville Grove and Kelmscott driveways, and box trailers in the newer estates all need working lights, sound plugs and, for heavier loads, electric brakes. Corroded earths and worn plugs cause most faults. Our guide on why trailer lights stop working helps you track them down. Check every light with someone standing behind the trailer before each trip, and look over the plug for green corrosion on the pins.

Driving lights for the scarp and rural roads
Brookton Highway through Roleystone, the hills roads above Kelmscott and the rural roads around Byford are dark at night, and kangaroos are common at dawn and dusk. Good headlights and a pair of quality driving lights help you see further. Driving lights should be wired through a relay and fuse, switch on only with high beam, and be aimed correctly.

Trucks in the business parks
The Forrestdale Business Park beside Tonkin Highway and the South Armadale industrial area bring warehouses, transport yards and heavy haulage to the area. Many heavy vehicles run 24V systems, and oversize loads need beacons and lighting that work every time. Regular checks of earths, plugs and charging keep trucks off the side of the road. Forklifts in the warehouses need working beacons and reversing alarms too.

Reversing cameras for new estates
Newer streets in Piara Waters, Harrisdale and Byford are lined with parked cars, bikes and children. A reversing camera and parking sensors make backing out much safer. Most cars without them can take an aftermarket kit, and a camera on a caravan or float helps when reversing it into a side yard. Run cables through grommets, seal every join, and fuse the power supply so a fault can't flatten the battery.
