Over time, components in your engine can deteriorate and cause driveability issues.  You may be experiencing shuddering or surging, strange noises, difficulty starting, or poor fuel economy. However, even modern computer-controlled engines and drivetrains can sometimes fail to bring on an engine light or alert you to these faults.

E Motive has the tools and expertise to diagnose and rectify most faults in modern engines and transmissions.

Have a talk with us if you suspect your vehicle is not performing at its best.

Are your electric windows not working or stuck down? Interior blower fan not working? Door locks jammed or inoperative? Is the fuel gauge inaccurate?

Most parts in modern vehicles work via computer-controlled systems. This makes correctly diagnosing a fault much more difficult if you don’t have the proper tools.

We have the tools and ability to fix almost any electrical fault in-vehicle systems such as heating and air conditioning, instrument clusters, audio, electric windows, door locks, keyless entry, alarm systems, window wipers, lighting, illumination, and more!

The starter motor and alternator are vital electrical components in your vehicle. When they fail they can cause a big disruption to your plans or even leave you stranded.

Don’t risk it! If you suspect you have an issue, talk to us about getting it checked.

We can supply and fit quality starter motors and alternators to most makes and models of vehicles.

The heart of your vehicle’s electrical system is the battery. If you are having issues with your vehicle not starting or being slow to start it is likely a battery issue. Perhaps your vehicle battery goes flat quickly or doesn’t start again after having the radio on briefly.

Don’t just replace the battery without checking. Let us test your battery’s state of health, test if it is being charged properly, and test to see if anything in the vehicle is causing it to go flat.

Talk to us about testing, supplying, and fitting a quality new battery to your vehicle.

If you want to add, modify or upgrade a system in your vehicle we can help.

E motive can supply and fit a wide range of audio head units, reverse cameras, drive cameras, parking sensors, GPS trackers, alarms, auxiliary battery systems, light bars, work lights, and much, more.

Also, talk to us about removing any systems you suspect are unnecessary and in the way. Many imported Japanese vehicles have ETC toll readers and other antennas that have no function in New Zealand. We can safely remove the unnecessary components and clean up your car’s interior.

Is your dash or instrument cluster in a different language? Ask us whether we can get it translated for you.

If your vehicle has failed its warrant of fitness (WoF) talk to us about how we can help. We’ll get you safely back on the road again.

We can rectify issues such as headlight alignment and focus, dull or blown bulbs, dash warning lights, jammed electric seats, and much more.

We at E Motive are qualified to work on these vehicles and assist you in caring for them. We also have the specialist tools to test the battery state of health (SoH) of any Toyota hybrid system and Nissan EV battery system.

Large batteries and electric motors are not the only things unique to Hybrid and electric vehicles.

Many other components in these vehicles require special knowledge and tools to carry out work safely and efficiently.

If your hybrid or electric vehicle requires attention, E motive can help.

Loose, untidy, or damaged wiring isn’t just ugly, it’s also unsafe and can pose a risk to you and your vehicle if left unchecked.

E motive can tidy up those messy areas and make sure the electricity will keep flowing. Do you have a fuse that keeps blowing? Let us get to the bottom of the problem and get things working as they should again.

We can also assist with electrical repairs to damage from rodents, flooding/water ingress, and fire.

E motive enjoy designing and building electrical systems that will help you achieve what you want from your vehicle.

We can help you with custom lighting, charging, or other setups to suit your needs.

Perhaps you have a boat trailer or caravan that requires your vehicle to be wired for electric brakes and charging for the house battery. Or perhaps you need a power supply for a winch or extra USB and power sockets. We can make all this possible and make it work as you want.

We pride ourselves on making our installations look as factory finished as possible.
