Something a little different for Hayden’s Auto Fix today!

Had the opportunity to spend today working alongside Brenden from Tagtoyou Installations, getting stuck into this GU Patrol!

Today’s work included:
🔹 Dual battery and auxiliary 12V setup
🔹 12V control board installation
🔹 LED light bar installation
🔹 UHF radio repairs and new aerial
🔹 Wiring and electrical accessories

But this post isn’t just about the work we completed today.

I wanted to give a massive shout-out to Brenden from Tagtoyou Installations for taking me under his wing and giving me the opportunity to learn more about the 12V and auto electrical side of things.

Running my own small business hasn’t always been an easy journey, and finding people willing to give you a chance, share their knowledge and help you grow isn’t always easy either.

Brenden has been more than willing to share what he knows, involve me in his jobs and give me the chance to get hands-on experience.

And honestly, I appreciate that more than he probably realises.

I’m a big believer that no matter how much you know, there’s always something new to learn. Having someone willing to pass on their knowledge rather than keep it to themselves means a lot.

Full credit to Brenden and Tagtoyou Installations for the work and the opportunity. I’m just grateful to be part of it and continue learning along the way.

If anyone is chasing 12V setups, dual batteries, UHF radios, light bars, dash cams or car audio installations, definitely give Tagtoyou Installations a follow and check out his work!

Small businesses supporting small businesses. 🤝

Always learning, always improving! 🔧

2004 Holden Commodore V6 – Drive Belt Repair

This Commodore came in after the upper drive belt pulley had completely let go, leaving basically just the bearing behind

The failed pulley had also damaged the drive belt, so the remains of the old pulley were removed, a new pulley and new drive belt fitted, and everything checked over.

All back together and running properly again

Last Night’s Job – 2014 Kia Optima Front Brakes

What started as a straightforward front brake pad replacement turned into a bit more work after finding both front caliper pistons seized.

Both calipers had to come off so the pistons could be freed up before fitting the new Bendix pads, reassembling everything and bleeding the brakes.

Definitely more than your average pad change! 🔧

2016 VW Crafter – Service & Electrical Diagnosis

In today for a full service along with diagnosing a completely dead head unit.

Engine oil & filter replaced
General vehicle check-over
Full diagnostic scan
Head unit power supply & fuses tested
Fault traced to a blown fuse at the rear of the head unit
Fuse replaced and head unit back up and running

Sometimes the simple faults still require a bit of diagnosis to find — especially when the main vehicle fuses test perfectly fine.

Been a busy couple of weeks!

I’ve been pretty flat out lately and haven’t had much chance to keep the page updated, so here’s a few random shots from some of the jobs and diagnostics I’ve been working through.

Not every job is simply replacing a part — sometimes half the battle is testing, diagnosing and actually finding the cause of the problem before throwing money at it.

From servicing and charging system faults to ignition issues, electrical testing and general diagnostics, there’s been a bit of everything lately.

Appreciate everyone who’s been keeping Hayden’s Auto Fix busy! And if I’ve worked on your vehicle and you were happy with the service, I’d really appreciate you taking a minute to leave a review on the page. Every review helps support the business and is greatly appreciated!

2017 Kia Carnival – Major Service

This Carnival was due for some much-needed maintenance today!

✅ Engine oil & filter replaced
✅ Air filter replaced
✅ Cabin filter replaced
✅ All 6 spark plugs replaced
✅ General inspection while servicing

The photos speak for themselves 👀 Those filters had definitely seen better days, and the spark plugs were showing plenty of wear.

The rear 3 spark plugs on these V6 Carnivals are hidden underneath the upper intake, so there’s a bit more involved than your average plug change — but all 6 are now fresh and she’s back together and running nicely. 👌
