Common auto electrical jobs in Dianella

Dianella covers more than 10 square kilometres between Yokine and Morley, about 9 km north of the CBD. Dianella Regional Open Space, at the corner of Alexander Drive and Morley Drive, hosts weekend sport for much of the area.

Towbars on family SUVs

A new towbar on a late-model SUV usually needs more than a plug spliced into the tail lights. Many cars use a vehicle-specific wiring harness or module so the car's computer recognises the trailer and doesn't throw bulb-out warnings. Fitting the wrong kit can upset parking sensors and lighting checks. Our guide on whether you need a towbar wiring harness explains the options.

Air conditioning for Dianella summers

Summers in Perth's northern suburbs are long and hot, and the drive home along Alexander Drive or Morley Drive is when a weak system is noticed. Common electrical faults include failed condenser fans, relays and pressure switches. A pre-summer check catches problems before the first heatwave. Any refrigerant work must be carried out by a licensed technician. Weak cooling at idle that improves on the move often points to the condenser fan.

Indicators flashing fast after an LED upgrade

Swapping old globes for LEDs is a popular upgrade, but LED indicators draw much less current. Many cars read that as a blown globe and flash at double speed. Load resistors or an LED-compatible flasher relay usually fix it, depending on the car. Our guide on why indicators flash fast explains the cause and the fixes. Buy LED globes made for your car's sockets so they seat firmly and don't flicker.

Electric brakes for the caravan

Some Dianella families keep a caravan or camper at home for school holiday trips. Heavier vans need electric brakes and a controller in the tow vehicle, wired with heavy enough cable and properly fused. The controller needs setting to suit the van's weight. Our guide on how to install an electric brake controller walks through the process. Check the breakaway battery in the van at the same time.

Replacing the SUV battery

Many SUVs with stop-start use an AGM or EFB battery, and some keep it under a seat or in the boot rather than under the bonnet. Fitting the cheapest battery that fits the tray can shorten its life and disable stop-start. Match the type and size to what the car came with, and use a memory saver if you want to keep radio and seat settings.

Dianella auto electrical questions

Why do my indicators flash fast after fitting LED globes?

The car's flasher system measures current to detect a blown globe. LED globes draw far less current, so the car thinks a globe has failed and flashes faster as a warning. Fitting load resistors, an LED-compatible flasher relay or, on some cars, a coding change will bring the flash rate back to normal.

Do I need electric brakes on my caravan?

In Australia, trailers over 750 kg loaded mass need brakes, and heavier trailers generally need brakes that can be applied from the driver's seat, which usually means electric brakes and a controller. Check the van's compliance plate and the current rules for your trailer's weight before you tow.
