Electrical Repair in Burnaby

Accurate Electrical Diagnostics and Reliable Repairs for All Makes and Models

Automotive Electrical Repair

Modern vehicles rely on complex electrical systems to control everything from starting and charging to safety features, sensors, and in-car electronics. When something goes wrong, symptoms can be confusing — flickering lights, warning messages, intermittent issues, battery drain, or a vehicle that won’t start. At Crompton Brothers Automotive, we provide professional electrical repair in Burnaby, backed by accurate diagnostics and clear, honest recommendations.

Serving Burnaby since 1980, we help drivers and local businesses solve electrical problems the right way — without guesswork, unnecessary parts, or repeat visits.

Comprehensive Transmission Diagnostics and Repair Services

Signs You May Need Electrical Repair

Electrical issues often show up as intermittent problems that come and go. If you notice any of the following, it’s time to book an inspection:

  • Vehicle won’t start or has intermittent starting problems
  • Battery keeps dying or frequent jump starts are needed
  • Dashboard warning lights that appear randomly
  • Flickering headlights or dim interior lights
  • Burning smell near electrical components
  • Blown fuses or repeated fuse failures
  • Power windows, locks, mirrors, or accessories not working properly
  • Infotainment, radio, or screen issues
  • Faulty sensors causing drivability problems
  • Random loss of power or stalling
  • Wipers, heater fan, or lights working inconsistently

Electrical issues can also create secondary problems that look like engine or transmission concerns — which is why proper diagnostics matter.

Why Electrical Problems Are Often Misdiagnosed

Many electrical issues share similar symptoms. For example, a “no start” can be caused by:

  • A weak battery
  • A failing alternator
  • A starter problem
  • Corroded terminals or poor connections
  • A parasitic draw (battery drain)
  • A relay, fuse, or control module issue

Replacing parts based on assumptions can get expensive fast. Our approach is to test first, confirm the root cause, then recommend the correct repair.

Our Electrical Diagnostic Process

At Crompton Brothers Automotive, electrical repair begins with a structured diagnostic process designed to find the real problem — not just the most obvious symptom.

Our Process May Include:

  • Battery testing (load test, voltage test)
  • Charging system testing (alternator output, regulator function)
  • Starter circuit testing
  • Fuse and relay testing
  • Voltage drop testing (to identify resistance in wiring or connections)
  • Continuity testing for wiring integrity
  • Parasitic draw testing (battery drain diagnosis)
  • Scan tool diagnostics for fault codes, modules, and live data
  • Inspection for rodent damage or wiring intrusion

Once we confirm the cause, we explain the issue clearly and provide options based on safety, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

Electrical Services We Provide

We service all makes and models, including personal vehicles, SUVs, trucks, and fleet vehicles.

Battery, Starting & Charging System Repair

If your vehicle struggles to start, the battery drains quickly, or your charging system is unreliable, we test and service:

  • Batteries
  • Alternators
  • Starters
  • Battery terminals and cables
  • Charging and starting circuits

Battery Drain / Parasitic Draw Testing

If your battery dies overnight or after sitting, we can diagnose parasitic draw issues by identifying what component or circuit is draining power when the vehicle is off.

Fuse, Relay, and Wiring Repairs

Electrical faults can be caused by:

  • Loose or corroded connections
  • Damaged wiring
  • Short circuits
  • Repeated blown fuses

We locate and repair the underlying issue — not just replace fuses.

Electrical Diagnostics for Warning Lights and Sensors

Warning lights and drivability problems can be linked to electrical faults in sensors, wiring, or control modules. We perform diagnostics to confirm what’s failing and why.

Lighting and Accessory Repairs

We diagnose and repair common electrical issues such as:

  • Headlights and taillights
  • Signal lights
  • Interior lighting
  • Power windows and locks
  • Wipers and washer systems
  • Heating fan and blower motor issues

Electrical Repairs for Burnaby Fleets and Business Vehicles

Fleet vehicles often face higher electrical wear due to daily use, stop-and-go driving, accessory usage, and consistent scheduling demands. We provide electrical repair support for Burnaby fleets to reduce downtime and keep business vehicles dependable.
