Batteries, Electrics and MOTs for Coal Pool

Coal Pool sits north-east of Walsall town centre, around the old crossroads where Coalpool Lane, Harden Road and Goscote Lane meet. Getting to us is easy: follow Coalpool Lane south past Ryecroft Cemetery, cut along Proffitt Street and Stafford Street, and Stockton Close is just the other side of Green Lane. It is about a mile and a half, and usually a five minute drive.

The job Coal Pool drivers ring us about most on a cold morning is a car that will not start. A battery that clicks, a starter that turns over slowly or a dashboard that flickers when you turn the key usually means the battery is on its way out. We test it properly, along with the alternator that charges it, so you are not buying a new battery when the real fault lies somewhere else.

Modern cars are full of electrics, and when one goes wrong it can be confusing. Electric windows that stop halfway, central locking with a mind of its own, lights that fail the MOT or a battery that goes flat overnight for no clear reason are all things we trace with the right testing gear, rather than swapping parts until the problem goes away.

We also carry out DVSA-approved Class 4 MOTs, servicing, brakes and general repairs, and we have been in the trade for more than 20 years. Book online or call 01922 636820 and tell us what the car is doing.
