Battery & drain diagnostics
$120 — credited against the repair
Parasitic drain traced to its circuit, battery and charging tested under load. When we do the repair the same day, the $120 comes straight off the bill.

Full rewires, restorations and fault-chasing beyond the drain check are quoted after we've had the dash apart — old looms keep their secrets until then. Light bar price is fit-up of your lights; supply quoted separately.
What's on the bench
Workshop rates, stated up front. Everything leaves fused, labelled and load-tested — the multimeter never lies, and neither do we about what it found.
Dual-battery touring systems
from $780
AGM auxiliary, DC-DC charger, tray mount and isolator — wired to run the fridge for a week and still start the ute.
Driving lights & light bars
fitted from $340
Your lights, our switched loom — relay, fused feed and a dash switch that looks factory. Light supply quoted separately if you'd like ours.
Trailer wiring
from $260
7-pin flat, wired to the drawbar and tested on the plug in front of you — lights, brakes and charge line if the van needs it.
Reverse cameras & UHF
from $290
UHF installed with the aerial tuned, $290. Camera and mirror monitor supplied and fitted, $420 — see the trailer before you feel it.
Rewires & restorations
quoted with the dash apart
Full rewires and fault-chasing beyond the drain check carry no sticker price — old looms keep their secrets until we've had the dash apart. Honest quote once we can see the copper.

Word from the driveway
Demonstration reviews, written for this demo — but this is the work they'd describe.
★★★★★
"The ute went flat every second night for a month. Currentline traced it to the glovebox light in under an hour — charged the $120 diagnostic, then credited it when they fixed the switch. Drain's gone."
★★★★★
"Dual battery and DC-DC in before touring season. The fridge ran a full week at Cape Range and the start battery never dropped a volt. Wiring's labelled like a switchboard."
★★★★★
"Rang Tuesday, trailer wired Wednesday afternoon — the day before we left for Karijini. Tested every pin on the plug in front of me before he'd take payment."
Wangara bench, metro-wide van
The workshop lives in Wangara's industrial strip — easy off Ocean Reef Road, coffee within walking distance while you wait. Can't come to us? The mobile van carries the same test gear and most common stock, metro-wide for a $90 call-out on top of the job.

Asked across the counter
Why does my car go flat overnight?
Because something small is still awake — a boot light, a stuck relay, an aftermarket unit that never sleeps. The $120 drain check clamps a meter on the battery and pulls fuses until the culprit circuit shows itself. We tell you which circuit, what it's drawing, and what the fix costs — and the $120 comes off that fix.
Do you supply driving lights, or do I bring my own?
Either. The $340 fit-up is for lights you supply — our switched loom, relay and fused feed. If you'd rather we supply, we'll quote lamps we're happy to put our name on, separately and in writing.
How long does a dual-battery install take?
Most of a day, done properly. Tray fabrication, cable runs sized to the load, an isolator that actually isolates, and a load test before the keys come back. Drop the ute at 7am, collect by close.
Will accessories void my new-car warranty?
No — fitted to standard, they don't. We wire to the manufacturer's specifications with fused, labelled circuits, and your dealer can see exactly what was done. Australian consumer law protects properly fitted accessories.
Why don't rewires have a price on this page?
Because we'd be guessing, and we don't guess out loud. A forty-year-old loom can be one chafed wire or a whole harness — we quote after we've had the dash apart and can see the copper. The look-in is charged as the $120 diagnostic, credited if we do the work.
