Heavy Vehicle Auto Electrical Albany
Electrical fault? Call 0409 707 517. Call Now
Exact Diesel & Mechanical provides mobile auto electrical repairs for heavy vehicles and machinery in Albany and across the Great Southern. We come to you to fix batteries, starter motors, alternators, wiring, lighting and electrical faults on trucks, trailers, earthmoving equipment and forestry machinery. We're locally owned and a licensed repairer (MRB13038), working across Albany, Denmark, Walpole, the Great Southern, Lake Grace and Esperance. With diagnostics done on site, we find the real fault before we start replacing parts.
Electrical faults stop heavy equipment cold
Modern trucks and machines run on electronics. Engine management, sensors, lighting, safety systems and controls all depend on clean power and good wiring. One corroded plug, chafed loom or tired battery can leave a prime mover that won't crank, a loader with warning lights everywhere or a trailer with no brakes or lights.
Electrical faults are also some of the hardest to chase. They come and go, they hide inside looms and they often look like a mechanical problem. That's why we test before we replace. You pay to fix the fault, not to guess at it.
What we work on
Trucks and heavy vehicles
Prime movers, rigid trucks, tippers and dump trucks. Charging and starting systems, lighting, wiring and dash warning lights.
Trailers
Trailer lighting, plugs and wiring faults, and trailer brake electrical problems. A trailer with faulty lights or brakes can't go anywhere safely, so we sort it where it's parked. See Trailer Repairs.
Earthmoving equipment
Excavators, loaders, skid steers and backhoes. Starting and charging faults, worklights, wiring damaged on site and electrical warning faults.
Forestry machinery
Forestry machines work hard in dust, mud and vibration, which is tough on wiring and connectors. We travel out to the coupe or landing to find and fix electrical faults so the machine gets back to work. See Forestry Machinery Repairs & Servicing.

Mobile auto electrical, where your equipment is
A machine with a dead battery or a failed starter can't drive itself to a workshop. Because we're mobile, we come to your yard, worksite, farm or forestry coupe with the gear to test and repair on the spot. If a part needs to be ordered or a job needs more time, we'll tell you straight away what it needs and what your options are.
If your truck or machine has broken down and won't start, call 0409 707 517 or see our Emergency Breakdown Support.
Signs you have an electrical problem
- Slow cranking, clicking or no start
- Battery or charging warning light on the dash
- Batteries going flat overnight or after a few days parked
- Lights dimming, flickering or not working
- Warning lights or fault codes that come and go
- Trailer lights or brakes not working when coupled up
- Burning smell, melted plugs or blown fuses
Caught early, most of these are a smaller, cheaper fix than a breakdown on the road or the job.

Keep electrical faults off the road
Batteries, terminals, belts and wiring give warning signs long before they fail. Our Fleet Maintenance service checks charging systems, batteries and wiring as part of scheduled servicing for forestry, trucking and earthmoving fleets, so electrical problems are found in the yard instead of on the road.
