Spark Plug Cable Replacement

A spark plug cable is a heavily insulated wire to stop rogue sparks or magnetisation. It travels from the ignition coil or distributor to the spark plug. It carries the 12V charge, that has been converted into a 22,000V charge, to the spark plug.

Starter Motor Replacement

When you turn the key (or press the start/ stop button) magic happens… well nearly. What's actually going on behind there is thanks, in no small part, to the engine's starter motor. A starter motor is a small electric motor attached to the engine’s flywheel, which when engaged, helps turnover the engine until it fires up. This rotation is what bursts your engine to life. Once the engine is running the starter motor returns to its hibernated form, waiting for the next time you need to start your car.

Horn Replacement

Your horn is your best friend when you want to alert someone to the error of their ways. If it is broken you’ll need to replace it, not just for the safety of other road users but also because it’s required for a warrant of fitness.

Throttle Position Sensor Replacement

The throttle position sensor is a small device that tells your throttle body how much pressure you’re applying to the accelerator pedal. This means that the right mixture of air/fuel is put into the engine and the car accelerates at the rate you want it too.
