Eric's Blog

In his blog Eric will give information on some of the problems that he encounters during a normal days work, he will do this as often as he is able - he is very busy after all - he will also announce new services and facilities available to our many trade and retail customers.

 

 

We are a family owned and run business with experience going back to the early 1980's, Operating from a spacious 4000 square foot workshop in St Albans with plenty of free parking for visiting customers. About 60% of our work is for our regular trade customers, so we have lots of experience dealing with difficult and complex problems.

As specialists we regularly see the same problems over and over again, this allows us to find and fix problems much easier and faster than most garages.

We are happy to book vehicles in advance to fit in with customers often busy schedules, however we are usually able to offer a same day service.

The Diagnostics Specialists

We have the tools and expertise to perform better than dealer-level diagnostics on the vast majority of cars on the road today. We are not restricted to any particular make or model

We have a huge range of specialist equipment that allows us to find and repair all manner of faults on any make or model of vehicle.

It is important to note that we are not just talking about code readers, although they do play a small part in our work, most of the time we are using serial and parallel communications equipment directly talking to the ECU's, followed by oscilloscopes and other specialist and often in-house developed test equipment to determine the actual cause of any issues found.

Unlike regular garages who spend most of their time servicing and repairing the mechanical side of vehicles, at Turner Automotive we specialise in the increasingly complex computer controlled electronic systems on a very wide range of vehicles. We also have the skills and specialist equipment that enables us to repair most electronics systems such as ECU's to component level, allowing us to repair ECU's rather than replace them.

The Vehicle Electronics Specialists - Auto Electricians

With more than 25 years of experience in the repair of car electrical systems. We can carry out all manner of electrical fault finding and repairs, from the simple to the more complex such as the rewiring of vintage, classic, modified or high performance cars.

With modern cars increasingly having CAN networks linking all the ecu's controllers and systems, traditional switches are no longer used, most controls and switches just send signals and let the controllers do all the work, so a good auto electrician is what is needed to find and fix many of the problems that would not in the past have been considered an electrical problem.

No job is too big or too small and most of the time we are able to offer a same day service - call for more details and to arrange a visit.
