For Thomastown drivers, vehicle problems are not always neatly “mechanical” or “electrical”. A work van that will not start, a car with an intermittent warning light or a vehicle that is overdue for servicing may need more than one type of expertise. Kendon Auto Electrical & Mechanical brings auto electrical diagnosis, mechanical repairs, car servicing and air-conditioning work together at its Preston workshop.
Customers from Thomastown can book planned maintenance as well as fault finding for issues that need proper testing. The service range also includes roadworthy inspections, 4WD repairs and accessories, and fleet servicing for businesses managing multiple vehicles.

SERVICING YOUR CAR
Kendon has a strong existing search presence for auto electrical work around Thomastown, and that service remains a core focus of the page. The workshop can diagnose starting and charging problems, batteries that repeatedly discharge, alternator and starter motor faults, lighting issues, wiring problems, EFI-related faults and accessory installations.
Electrical symptoms are often intermittent. A vehicle might start normally one day and struggle the next, or a warning light may appear only under certain driving conditions. Testing the system before replacing parts helps narrow down the fault and reduces the risk of treating the symptom rather than the cause.
Search demand around Thomastown is particularly strong for mechanics and car servicing. Kendon provides routine maintenance, logbook servicing and mechanical repairs for customers who want one workshop to look after both scheduled service items and unexpected faults.
Mechanical work can include brakes and clutches, steering and suspension, cooling systems, fuel and injection issues, transmission-related concerns and other general repairs. During servicing, the team can also identify electrical or air-conditioning symptoms that may need separate diagnosis, making the visit more useful than treating each system in isolation.
Thomastown has a mix of residential and business activity, so dependable work vehicles matter to many local operators. Kendon’s fleet servicing can support businesses with planned maintenance and electrical or mechanical repairs across company cars, vans and other fleet vehicles.
A preventative servicing schedule helps businesses address wear before it becomes downtime. When a fleet vehicle develops an electrical or mechanical fault, having both capabilities available at the same workshop can also simplify diagnosis and repair planning.
Kendon provides Victorian roadworthy inspections from the Preston workshop for vehicles that need a roadworthy certificate for sale, transfer or re-registration. Where defects are identified, the workshop can explain the repairs required and arrange appropriate work.
For vehicles still following a manufacturer maintenance schedule, logbook servicing is available using the service requirements applicable to the make, model, age and mileage of the vehicle.
If the cabin is not cooling properly, airflow is weak or the climate-control system is behaving inconsistently, Kendon can diagnose and service car air conditioning and heating systems. The workshop works with both R134a and R1234yf refrigerant systems and can determine whether the vehicle needs a re-gas or further fault finding.
Thomastown customers with 4WDs can also book repairs and accessory work. Electrical installations on 4WDs need to be integrated correctly with the vehicle’s charging and electrical systems, particularly for accessories such as dual-battery equipment, brake controllers and other touring or towing additions.
Kendon is a family-owned workshop at 10A Bellevue Crescent, Preston, servicing Melbourne’s north and north-east. The team includes qualified mechanics, auto electricians and air-conditioning specialists, supported by diagnostic equipment for modern vehicles.
