Mobile car diagnostics & electrical repairs in Sydney
A warning light or fault code is a starting point. Getafix combines scan-tool information, electrical testing and hands-on mechanical checks to investigate what is happening with your vehicle at your home or workplace.
Find the cause before replacing parts.
Warning lights & fault codes
A scan can show which systems have recorded faults, along with useful operating information. That does not automatically prove a named component needs replacing. We consider the symptoms, stored codes, live data and relevant tests together, then explain the findings and the next step.
Electrical fault-finding
Electrical problems can come from wiring, connectors, fuses, power supplies, grounds or the component itself. Testing the relevant circuit helps narrow the cause. We handle electrical diagnosis, wiring repairs and re-wiring where appropriate to the vehicle and the agreed scope of work.
Starting & running problems
For an intermittent no-start, rough running or a loss of power, the conditions matter. Tell us whether the engine cranks, whether the problem happens cold or hot, and what changed before the fault appeared. Photos or a short video of the symptoms can be useful, especially when the problem does not happen at every visit.
What happens after testing
We discuss what the checks have established, what remains uncertain and whether a repair or further investigation is needed. Diagnostic time and repair work are separate considerations. Some intermittent faults require more time or another visit, and some systems need specialist facilities or manufacturer-specific access.

Questions about this service
Is a diagnostic scan the same as a diagnosis?
No. A scan retrieves information from the vehicle’s systems. Diagnosis combines that information with symptoms and testing to investigate the cause. Clearing a code alone does not repair the underlying fault.
Should I clear the codes before your visit?
Please leave them in place where possible and send any scan reports you already have. Fault history and the conditions recorded with a code can help the investigation.
Can you diagnose a car that will not start?
Send the vehicle details, location and whether the engine cranks. We will confirm whether a mobile diagnostic visit is suitable. Access, the vehicle’s systems and the fault all affect what can be checked on site.
