The CRM workshop in Kialla with the roller door up, a customer's Alfa Romeo Spider parked in the bay
Roller door up. 27 Kialla Lakes Dr, Shepparton

What comes through the door

Eleven kinds of job, one shed.

From a dash that’s gone dark to a camper that needs to run a fridge for a week. If it has a battery and a wire, there’s a fair chance it’s on this list.

01

Under the dash

When something electrical stops working and the fuses and bulbs have already been tried.

Complete computer diagnostics

Plugging in to read what the car’s own computers are reporting, so the fault gets found rather than guessed.

Electrical diagnostics

Tracing dead lights, flat batteries and faults that come and go, back to where they actually start.

Starters and alternators

Won’t crank, or won’t charge. Testing, repairs and replacement of the two parts that keep everything running.

Custom wiring

New circuits and looms for custom cars, conversions and accessories, run neatly and done right.

Automotive air conditioning

Car air con that’s blowing warm or has quit altogether, checked over and sorted.

02

Off the grid

Set-ups for the ute, the 4WD and the van, so the fridge stays cold at camp.

Dual battery systems

A second battery for the fridge, lights and accessories, with DC-DC charging matched to your vehicle.

Solar panels

Panels wired into your battery system so it keeps topping itself up while you’re parked.

Trailer brake systems

Electric brake controllers and trailer wiring fitted for towing the van, the boat or the float.

03

The big gear

Auto electrical work doesn’t stop at cars.

Trucks

Electrical faults, charging and wiring on trucks.

Farm machinery

Auto electrical work on tractors and farm machinery.

Earthmoving

Auto electrical work on earthmoving machinery.

Not sure which of these it is? That’s what diagnostics are for. Ring and describe what the car is doing.

A 1998 Alfa Romeo Spider inside the CRM workshop, in for dash light and climate control faults

1998 Alfa Romeo Spider, in for dash lights, back lights and climate control.

The hard ones

Old, rare, and a pain to work on.

Some cars are harder than others: wiring that’s decades old, parts that stopped being made. Those are the jobs customers mention in their reviews: a 1998 Alfa Romeo Spider, an R31 Skyline, a Pathfinder that needed a proper DC-DC set-up for camping.

My dash lights and back lights had stopped working I had changed fuses and bulbs nothing worked. I googled Auto Electrician and air-conditioning specialists and CRM came up I like reading reviews. Someone wrote he was very good got them on the road quick and reasonably priced. I have a Alfa Romeo spider 1998 they are difficult to work on and can be a pain for anyone plus parts are hard to get, lucky for me he found the problem which wasn't easy it took a bit of time. This guy knows what he is doing I highly recommend CRM. My AC climate control wasn't working he checked that as well and said the condenser needed replacing as they don't make the parts anymore I'll look online ebay. When I find one I'll be back.

Would I use Clint McInnes from CRM auto electrical ever again to work on my Nissan Pathfinder R51 Ti?? Well, most definitely. Knowing he has a busy schedule and is booked out in advance, I was deeply grateful for his knowledge and understanding of this trade. Clint steered me in the right direction for my Dc Dc set up at at a price I was comfortable with and gave me more than what I expected. Everything runs beautifully and now I can spend longer days camping away. Thank you Clint for your professionalism and wellful insight. Your business will grow bigger now with this insightful information. Am I going to be paid for this review??? Not sure..
