One of the best auto electric shops

My 1993 Ford Super Duty 450 truck was parked in front of our house this weekend & was hit hard in the rear by a neighbor in his suv. On Monday a Claims Generalist from AGI Insurance came out to examine the damage to my truck. The lift gate would not work & was damaged to the point it had to be replaced. On Wed. as I was driving to Utility Trailer Southwest Sales to get an estimate, I noticed that the alternator lig... view moreht was on. After leaving Utility Trailer on my way home I stopped at Silva Auto Electric. Rudy charged the battery for 2 hours, and then he diagnosed the charging system. He found that a short in the rear of the truck had blown a fuseable link that provides 12 volts to the alternator. After isolating the wire that feeds 12 volts to the lift gate, he replaced the 14 amp fuseable link to the alternator. He then diagnosed the charging system again & the alternator was performing properly. Rudy used a very profession approach to diagnosing this charging system problem. Many shops after seeing that the alternator was not charging would have replaced this $300.00 alternator. Then when it still didn?ˆ™t charge would do further testing to discover the real problem, the blown 14 amp fuseable link to the alternator. Now the customer is charged not only for diagnosing & repairing the fuseable link but installing a $300.00 alternator that was not needed. By going to a reputable professional shop like Silva Auto Electric my bill was $100.00 instead of $400.00, a saving of $300.00. I highly recommend this shop for any auto electric work.
