Common auto electrical jobs in Huntingdale

Huntingdale is a mostly residential suburb in the City of Gosnells, with older homes from the 1970s and newer development from the 1990s onwards in its southern part. A few semi-rural pockets remain, and schools and small shops serve the local area.

Checking a first car

Many Huntingdale families are buying a first car for a learner or P-plater. Before you hand over the money, check the electrics: every light, the horn, wipers, windows, the battery's age and the charging voltage. Warning lights should come on with the key, then go out. Our guide on how to use a multimeter on a car shows how to check voltage yourself.

Jump starting safely

Lights left on overnight and a car that won't start before school are a rite of passage. Jump starting is simple, but the order of the leads matters, and connecting the last lead to a bare metal earth away from the battery reduces the risk of sparks. Our guide on how to jump start a car safely covers each step.

Blown fuses

When the radio, phone charger or wipers suddenly stop, a blown fuse is the first thing to check. The fuse box diagram is usually in the owner's manual or on the cover. Always replace a fuse with one of the same rating. If it blows again straight away, there's a short circuit to find. Our guide on how to check and replace a fuse explains how.

Windows that won't go up

Power windows in older family cars often slow down, stick or stop. The cause may be a worn switch, a broken wire in the door hinge, a tired motor or a failed regulator. Listen at the door: if the motor whirs but the glass doesn't move, the regulator is usually broken. Our guide on electric windows that stop working helps narrow it down.

Air conditioning that blows but doesn't cool

If air comes out of the vents but isn't cold, check whether the compressor clutch engages when you press the air conditioning button. If it doesn't, a fuse, relay or pressure switch may be the cause, and those are electrical fixes. If the system is low on gas, there's a leak, and regassing needs a licensed technician. A cabin filter that's blocked also cuts airflow.

Huntingdale auto electrical questions

What should I keep in my teenager's first car?

A set of jumper leads or a compact jump starter, a few spare fuses of the right ratings, a torch, and a phone charger. Show them where the fuse box and spare tyre are before they need them. Knowing how to check a fuse and safely jump start a car solves a lot of roadside problems.

Is a lithium jump starter better than jumper leads?

It's more convenient, because you don't need a second car. A compact lithium jump starter can start most petrol cars several times on a charge, and many have reverse polarity protection. Recharge it every few months, and don't leave it baking in the car through summer. Jumper leads still work well when there's another car nearby.
