- Auto electrical diagnostics and battery installation.
The symptoms of battery failure are typically slow or no starter motor cranking but there are a number of other faults which will offer up these symptoms. Wherever possible have your car electrical system professionally diagnosed so that you can nail the real fault first time and pay only once.
For example many motorists replace the battery and find the problem remains unsolved... that's money and time wasted, call us... our advice is free. Please contact us for more info.
- Holler for a Marshall!
Marshall Batteries are legendary and are of the very best quality available in Australia. Highway Auto Electrics stock a complete range of this fine product. Click here for battery technical information.
- Computer memory kept alive during battery change over.
Car computers (ECU) monitor your driving habits by memorising the ECU input signals over time and this information forms the adaptive memory, it is mostly beneficial to retain ECU data so the memory must be kept alive when the car battery is replaced. Highway Auto Electrics keep all memory components alive when servicing your vehicle.

How to avoid trouble with Car Computers & Car Eectronics!
The car battery is one of the major contributors to car computer (ECU) and car electrical failure along with alternator and starter motor failure, here's why:
The car battery has a limited life usually 2 years and its then on borrowed time so change out your battery inside that time and before it gives indications of sluggish starting and you may never have car electrical or car computer problems. The car battery also absorbs the car alternator output so if the battery plates and internal links are in a worn condition there is a risk of voltage spikes occurring which will kill off electronic components and the car engine management computer.
We recycle... naturally!
Old car batteries are one of the world's most recycled items: Battery acid is recycled by neutralizing it into water or converting it to sodium sulfate for laundry detergent, glass and textile manufacturing.
Plastic is recycled by cleaning the battery case, melting the plastic and reforming it into uniform pellets.
Lead, which makes up 50% of every battery, is melted, poured into slabs and purified.
