Starting and electrical work
When your car will not start
Tell us what happens when you try to start the vehicle.
Starter motor replacement
This BMW E90 330i would not start, and its starter motor was making a grinding noise. We checked the battery and tried a jump pack. The power supply was good but the grinding continued, so we replaced the starter motor. The car then started first time.
Send your vehicle details and explain what it does when you try to start it.
Earth cable and connection repairs
On a Fiat Uno that would not start, we checked the battery’s negative terminal and the earth connection. The earth connection was corroded and its original mounting had sheared off. We cleaned the connection and relocated the mounting. You can see the terminal and bracket in the job photos.
Other electrical problems
Tell us what is wrong and include any findings from another garage. We’ll let you know whether we can help and discuss what needs checking before recommending new parts.
