What Is Electrical Diagnostics?
A truck or trailer is a web of wiring, fuses, relays, grounds, connectors and modules. Electrical diagnostics is the work of finding the one weak link in that web: a corroded connector, a chafed wire, a bad ground, a failing alternator or a module that has stopped talking.
Intermittent faults are the hardest, because the problem is gone when you pull into the shop. That is why we trace the circuit and test it under load instead of swapping parts and hoping.
Our Story
We Find What the Dash Cannot Tell You
Bawa’s has been repairing trucks and trailers in Dallas since 2011. Electrical calls are some of the most frustrating for drivers, especially when other stops have already taken a shot at it.
We start with the symptoms, test the circuit, and show you what we found. One driver told us on Google that we fixed his truck’s A/C in no time and with no extra charges, which is the kind of straight dealing we aim for.

Lights Out Away From the Shop?
Lighting and wiring problems often can be fixed where the unit is parked. Call +1 (214) 400-4228 with your location and the symptoms, and we will tell you whether we can come to you or whether it needs the shop. We try to fix it on site first. If it cannot be repaired there, we can tow it to our shop for the repair. We do not offer towing to other locations.

FAQ
Electrical Diagnostics Questions, Answered
What electrical problems do you diagnose?
Wiring faults, lighting and 7-way plug problems, blown fuses, bad grounds, charging and starting issues, and electrical faults behind warning lights. Call +1 (214) 400-4228 with the symptoms and we will tell you how to get it in.
Why do my trailer lights keep going out?
Common causes include a worn or corroded 7-way plug, damaged wiring, a bad ground or a failing connection. Intermittent problems are the hardest, which is why we trace the circuit instead of replacing parts at random.
Can you fix a truck that will not start or keeps dying?
We can diagnose starting and charging problems, including batteries, cables, starters and alternators. Call with what the truck is doing.
Do you fix truck A/C electrical problems?
Yes. One driver wrote on Google that we fixed his A/C quickly and with no extra charges. Call with the symptoms and we will tell you what to expect.
How much does electrical diagnostics cost?
It depends on how hard the fault is to find, so we do not quote blind. Call us, describe the problem and we will give you a clear estimate before work begins.
What are your hours?
We are open Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 6 PM, and closed Sunday. For anything outside those hours, call +1 (214) 400-4228.
