Vehicles and driving in North West

North West contains much of the Bushveld Complex platinum belt, and the mines around Rustenburg and Brits keep a large number of light vehicles, buses and heavy trucks running around the clock. The N4 Platinum Corridor links the area to Pretoria and the Botswana border, while the N14 and N12 cross the western maize and cattle country towards Vryburg and Klerksdorp. Hot summers, dusty farm roads and cold Highveld winters all take a toll on batteries and alternators. Weekend visitors to Hartbeespoort Dam and Pilanesberg add boats, caravans and leisure 4x4s that need trailer wiring and auxiliary power.

Frequently asked questions

How much does car diagnostics cost in North West?
It depends on the vehicle, the fault, the parts needed and whether the work is done in a workshop or on site. After-hours and roadside call-outs usually cost more. Send the form and an auto electrician serving North West will quote you.
Can an auto electrician come to me in North West?
Many auto electricians in the main centres of North West offer mobile call-outs for batteries, starters, alternators and diagnostics. Say where the vehicle is and whether it starts, so the right equipment comes along.
What should I do before the auto electrician arrives?
Note any warning lights and when the fault happens, keep the keys and spare remote handy, and don't keep trying to start a vehicle that only clicks. That helps the auto electrician find the fault faster.
