What We Repair
Common Electrical Problems We Fix
Our experienced technicians regularly address a wide range of electrical issues to keep Eugene drivers on the road.
Battery Issues
Battery problems are among the most common electrical concerns we fix. Whether your battery is failing to hold a charge, showing signs of corrosion, or has reached the end of its life, we provide testing and replacement services using high-quality batteries designed for your specific vehicle.
Alternator Failures
Your alternator keeps your battery charged and powers electrical systems while the engine runs. When it begins to fail, you may notice dim lights, battery warning indicators, or strange noises. Our technicians accurately diagnose alternator problems and provide expert replacement to restore your charging system.
Starter Motor Problems
When your vehicle won't start or produces clicking noises during starting, the starter motor may be failing. Our team quickly diagnoses starter issues and provides efficient replacement or repair to get you back on the road.
Wiring and Connection Problems
Frayed wires, loose connections, and damaged harnesses can cause intermittent electrical problems that are difficult to diagnose. Our electrical specialists trace circuit issues to their source and make precise repairs that resolve the problem permanently.
Computer and Module Malfunctions
Modern vehicles rely on multiple computer modules to control various systems. When these modules fail or lose communication, our diagnostic equipment can identify the issue and our technicians can repair or replace the affected components.

Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions About Auto Electrical Repair
How do I know if my car has an electrical problem?
Common signs of electrical issues include difficulty starting, dim or flickering lights, warning lights on the dashboard, power accessories failing to work properly, strange odors like burning plastic, or battery drain. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's best to have your vehicle checked promptly by our ASE Certified technicians.
How much does electrical repair cost in Eugene, OR?
Electrical repair costs vary depending on the specific issue and your vehicle type. Minor repairs like fuse replacement may cost as little as $50, while more complex issues like alternator replacement typically range from $300-$700 including parts and labor. At Action Automotive, we provide detailed, transparent estimates before beginning any work.
Can a bad battery damage other electrical components?
Yes, a failing battery can place additional stress on your alternator and other electrical components. Additionally, jump-starting a bad battery incorrectly can damage sensitive electronic modules. For this reason, we recommend professional battery testing and replacement at the first sign of problems.
How often should I replace my car battery?
Most car batteries last 3-5 years in Eugene's climate, though this varies based on driving habits and vehicle type. We recommend annual battery testing to monitor its condition and prevent unexpected failures, especially as your battery approaches the 3-year mark.
What causes the check engine light to come on?
The check engine light can indicate various issues, many of which are electrical in nature. Common causes include oxygen sensor failures, loose gas caps, catalytic converter problems, mass airflow sensor malfunctions, or spark plug/ignition issues. Our diagnostic equipment can quickly identify the specific cause of your check engine light.
Can electrical problems be fixed permanently?
Yes, with proper diagnosis and quality repairs, electrical issues can be resolved permanently. At Action Automotive, we take the time to find the root cause of electrical problems rather than just treating symptoms, ensuring long-lasting repairs backed by our warranty.
Do you offer mobile electrical repair service?
While we don't offer mobile service, we do provide complimentary Uber transportation for customers who need to leave their vehicle for electrical repairs. This convenient service allows you to continue with your day while we fix your vehicle.
How long does electrical system diagnosis take?
Basic electrical system diagnostics typically take 30-60 minutes, though complex issues may require additional time. Our goal is to be thorough rather than rushed, ensuring we identify the true cause of your electrical problem the first time.
Can you repair electrical issues in European vehicles?
Absolutely. Our ASE Certified technicians are equipped with specialized tools and training to diagnose and repair electrical systems in all makes and models, including European vehicles like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Volkswagen.
