Default Auto Elec - need a good one

Hey, am in need of an auto electrician in or around Ingleburn/Campbelltown.

Long story short..Jeep wont start, cranks and cranks. Have put it down to an electrical/wiring issue. Have replaced the cps, checked fuel all good. Now thinking its the 5 volt circuit that runs the tps, cps etc. Only problem is i live northern nsw and jeep is in sydney..

cheers.

alot of googling and unplugging each sensor on the 5v circuit. Also found that it had a crack in it once we removed the tps sensor.

No codes etc as that is part o the fault - cant even read the ecu with a scantool
