Electrical Repairs & Upgrades
Fault finding, charging/starting systems, wiring repairs and sympathetic upgrades.
Decades-old wiring, tired earths and past repairs make electrical faults one of the most common headaches on a classic. We trace the cause rather than adding another layer of patchwork.
From a car that won't charge to a loom that needs repairing, we put things right properly — and where upgrades make sense, we keep them sympathetic to the car.
What We Do
- Charging and starting system diagnosis and repair — dynamos, alternators, regulators and starters
- Wiring repairs and loom restoration, including old cloth looms
- Earth and connection faults, including intermittent problems
- Lighting, switchgear, gauges and instrument faults
- Sympathetic upgrades — improved lighting, alternator conversions, and modern ignition options where wanted
- Battery and charging tests, with a written summary
How It Works

Repair and test
Work completed and checked under real running conditions.
Pricing
Every classic is different, so we quote once we know what the car needs. Any additional work found along the way is discussed with you before we proceed.
