What we do

All aspects of auto electrical work

Blight's is a workshop, not a mobile service. Bring it to Daping Street and it gets looked at properly, on the bench, with the right gear on the shelf behind us.

Starter motors and alternators

Supplied and fitted, for cars, utes, trucks and farm machinery.

Auxiliary battery systems

Dual battery setups installed, along with electric brake controllers for anyone towing a van, a float or a trailer.

Auxiliary lighting and plugs

Work lights, light bars and driving lights supplied and fitted, plus the plugs and wiring behind them.

Electrical faults traced and repaired

Electrical circuits on vehicles and machinery. Farm gear included, not just what drives on the road.

Accessories fitted properly

A wide range of auto electrical products and accessories, supplied over the counter or fitted here in the workshop.

Not sure what it needs?

Ring the workshop and describe it. Most of the time we can tell you over the phone whether it is worth bringing in.

Two generations

Started by Graham Blight in March 1979.
Run by Darren Blight today.

The same family, on the same street, for over four decades. That is a long time to keep getting it right in a town this size, where everyone knows whose work is whose.

Locally owned, locally run, and still doing what it started doing: sorting out the electrics on whatever gets driven, towed or worked around Katanning.
