What we do

Auto-electrical work, done properly

Specialist car electrical repairs and fault-finding — from a warning light that won't clear to a full rewire. If it's electrical, it's what Samet does all day. Not sure what's wrong? Bring it in for a diagnostic.

Diagnostics & fault-finding

Warning lights and stored fault codes read on the scanner, then traced to the real cause — not just guessed at.

Batteries, alternators & starters

Flat batteries, charging faults and no-start problems — tested, and the alternator or starter replaced if needed.

Wiring & rewiring

Damaged looms, corroded connectors, shorts and dodgy previous repairs put right so the electrics stay reliable.

ECU & engine management

Engine-management lights, sensor faults and communication errors diagnosed and cleared, with the fix confirmed.

Electric windows & motors

Windows stuck up or down, faulty regulators and motors, sunroofs and central locking sorted so everything works again.

Central locking & immobilisers

Locking that won't respond, key-fob and immobiliser faults and alarm gremlins diagnosed and repaired.

Lights & electrical components

Headlights, indicators, dashboard and interior lighting, sensors and switches — bulbs, units and wiring behind them.

Parking sensors & dashcams

Reversing sensors and cameras, dashcams and electrical accessories supplied and wired in neatly and correctly.

Air-con & electrical extras

Electrical side of climate control, heated seats, fans and other add-ons checked and repaired.

Not sure which it is? That's what the diagnostic is for. Call 020 7254 3822 and describe the fault.

Why Samet

A specialist, not a guesser

1

Electrical is all he does

Auto electrics is a trade of its own. Samet lives in it every day, so he finds the faults general garages hand back.

2

Diagnosed, not guessed

Faults are read on the scanner and traced to the real cause — so you're not paying to swap parts that were never the problem.

3

Honest and fair

Customers describe him as genuine, knowledgeable and reasonably priced — the reviews speak for that reputation.

4

Quick turnaround

Many jobs are diagnosed the same day you call and sorted while you wait — no leaving the car for a week.

How it works

From warning light to sorted — no fuss.

1
Call & describe the fault
Ring Samet and say what your car's doing — the light, the noise, the dead switch.
2
Drive over for a diagnostic
Bring it to the arch on Andre Street; it goes on the scanner and the fault is traced.
3
