NO START CONDITIONS

BATTERY DRAINAGES

ACCESSORY FAILURES

FAULTY MODULES

UNDERSTANDING YOUR VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Today's vehicles contain dozens of electronic control modules, hundreds of feet of wiring, and numerous sensors that communicate with one another continuously.

Some Major Electrical System Components Include:

  • Battery

  • Alternator

  • Starter

  • Wiring harnesses

  • Relays

  • Fuses

  • Sensors

  • Control modules

  • Switches

  • Grounds and power circuits

These components work together to deliver power, communicate information, and control vehicle functions throughout the entire vehicle.

Without a properly functioning electrical system, many critical vehicle systems simply cannot operate.

WHAT DOES THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CONTROL?

Most drivers are surprised to learn just how much of their vehicle relies on electronics.

Modern electrical systems control:

  • Engine management systems

  • Fuel injection systems

  • Ignition systems

  • Starting systems

  • Charging systems

  • Transmission controls

  • Anti-lock brakes (ABS)

  • Traction control systems

  • Air conditioning and heating systems

  • Power windows and door locks

  • Interior and exterior lighting

  • Backup cameras

  • Safety systems

  • Four-wheel-drive systems

  • Diesel emissions systems

  • Driver assistance technologies

As vehicles become more advanced, proper electrical diagnostics become increasingly important when problems arise.

COMMON SIGNS OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS

Electrical concerns can appear in many different ways. Sometimes in ways that lead you to believe you have a mechanical issue.

Common Electrical Warning Signs Include:

  • Vehicle won't start

  • Slow cranking

  • Dead battery

  • Flickering lights

  • Dim headlights

  • Multiple warning lights illuminated

  • Intermittent electrical failures

  • Power accessories not functioning properly

  • Blown fuses

  • Battery repeatedly going dead

  • Burning electrical odors

  • Communication or module faults

If you notice any of these symptoms, professional diagnosis can help prevent further electrical damage and unnecessary parts replacement.

PERRY'S ELECTRICAL SERVICES

We offer a full range of electrical services and repairs.

Electrical Component Testing

Electrical systems are more advanced than ever and can often times show symptoms of issues in areas of the vehicle that have nothing to do with the actual problem. That's why proper electrical issue diagnostic is so important.

Fuse & Relay Testing

Modern cars have a multitude of fuses, relays, and fuse boxes. Checking each and every fuse can take ages. Often multiple electrical issues can stem from one fuse or relay not allowing power through the appropriate wiring.

Sensor Testing

Numerous vehicle systems have multiple wires and sensors that are vital to proper component function. A faulty sensor can make a vehicle appear to have a mechanical problem but finding that the issue is related to sensor failing is often much cheaper and faster when that is indeed the case.

Wiring Testing

The average motor vehicle has around 1,500 yards of wiring in it. That's 15 football fields worth of wire. One little nick, rub, short, or cut in even just a millimeter of that 1,500 yards can cause entire systems to malfunction.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SERVICES

Electrical problems are often among the most challenging vehicle issues to diagnose correctly without the proper tools and training.

Our certified technicians have the training and knowledge to properly replace multiple electrical components.
