Auto Electrical Repair in Somerset, KY

Modern vehicles are rolling computers, and electrical issues are where a lot of shops tap out. Not here — Toyota master and ASE master certification includes the electrical side, and we have the tooling to actually trace a wiring problem instead of guessing. Parasitic draws, intermittent no-starts, strange module behavior, after-market install problems — bring it in.

We handle the usual suspects (battery testing and replacement with correct CCA and proper registration for smart-charging systems, alternator and starter diagnosis and replacement, relay and fuse work) and the harder stuff: wiring-harness diagnosis, module communication issues, parasitic draw tracing, chasing down an intermittent on an oscilloscope when the code reader has nothing useful to say.

Old-school electrical work on modern vehicles means actually reading the schematic, testing the circuit the way the factory intended, and verifying the repair with a meter — not a shotgun of replacement parts.

Old Souls Garage handles auto electrical repair for drivers across Somerset, KY and all of Rockcastle County and the surrounding area. Call (606) 386-0997 and we'll give you honest numbers before you come in.

Why us for auto electrical repair in Somerset

  • Battery tested with a real load tester — not just a voltage check
  • Alternator tested with the car running and under load, not just off the car
  • Parasitic draw traced to the exact circuit — no disconnecting fuses until something works
  • Module coding and programming where the car requires it

How it works

  1. 1
    Call or text

    Describe the symptom — won't start, dies overnight, warning lights, aftermarket accessory acting up. Symptoms narrow the field fast.

  2. 2
    Test, don't guess

    Battery load test, alternator output test, voltage drops on the starter circuit, parasitic draw if warranted. Written quote before any parts.

  3. 3
    Fix and verify

    Replace what's actually bad, program / register where required, verify with the meter before releasing the car.

Common questions

My car won't start — is it the battery? +
Maybe. Could also be the starter, a corroded cable, a bad ground, an ignition switch, a security issue, or a voltage-drop somewhere the code reader won't see. We test the whole circuit, not just the battery.
My battery keeps dying overnight. Can you find the drain? +
Yes. Parasitic-draw testing is a real skill — you set up the test correctly, let the modules sleep, then pull fuses in a specific order while watching the amp meter. We find it.
Do I need special battery coding on my newer car? +
On many newer vehicles, yes. The charging system is calibrated to battery age and type, and a swap without registering the new battery means it gets overcharged or undercharged. We register when required.
The alternator is charging but the battery light is still on. Why? +
Usually a voltage-drop somewhere in the charging circuit, a stuck regulator, or a bad battery the alternator is fighting. Sometimes a module communication issue. We test, we don't replace-and-pray.
Will you work on aftermarket wiring? +
Yes — trailer brake controllers, light bars, radios, sub-woofers, remote starts. We sort out what was done wrong and make it work right without taking out a module in the process.
