Common auto electrical jobs in Noraville

Noraville covers under two square kilometres between the shops in Toukley and the coast at Norah Head. Like Toukley, it has an older population, and Hargraves House on Elizabeth Drive, the home of gold discoverer Edward Hargraves, is on the State Heritage Register.

Cars that only go to the shops

Plenty of Noraville cars only go out a few times a week for shopping, appointments or a visit to family. Modern cars draw a small current even when switched off, and with so little driving the battery never fully recharges. After a few weeks it may not start the car at all. A plug-in smart charger or maintainer, used every week or two, keeps the battery healthy. Our guide on charging a car battery explains the basics.

Easier reversing in tight spots

Turning to look over your shoulder gets harder with age, and narrow driveways and busy car parks don't help. Parking sensors fitted into the rear bumper beep as you get close to an object, and a reversing camera shows what's behind. Many kits show the picture in a replacement mirror, so there's no screen on the dash. The camera usually takes power from the reverse light circuit, so it only runs when needed.

Remote keys and central locking

When a remote key works only up close, or not at all, the coin battery inside is the usual cause, and it's cheap to replace. If one door won't lock or unlock with the others, the lock actuator in that door has probably failed. Frozen or slow central locking can also come from a weak car battery, so test that before buying parts.

Warning lights explained

A new light on the dash can be worrying, but not every warning means stop now. Red lights, such as oil pressure or temperature, mean pull over safely and switch off. Amber lights, such as the check engine light, mean get it looked at soon. A basic OBD2 scanner reads the stored fault code and can tell you how serious it is. Our guide on what to do when a warning light comes on explains each type.

Noraville auto electrical questions

How long can my car sit before the battery goes flat?

It depends on the car and the battery's age. Many modern cars run alarms, computers and keyless entry while parked, and a healthy battery may last two to four weeks before it struggles to start the car. An older battery may give up much sooner. If you drive rarely, a smart maintainer on a power point keeps it charged safely.

Is it worth fitting a reversing camera to an older car?

For many drivers, yes. Aftermarket kits suit most cars and are not expensive. The neatest option is often a camera on the number plate surround with a screen built into a replacement rear-view mirror. Good wiring matters: power from the reverse light circuit, a fuse, and cables run inside the car rather than along the outside.
