How we verify auto-electrician specialists
When your check-engine light flashes, you need a specialist who actually knows automotive electrical systems. We verify every electrician on OBD2 Online through three concrete checks: trade licence validation, government ID verification, and business address confirmation.
What we check first
We require a current trade licence issued by the local automotive authority. This proves the specialist has met minimum competency standards for vehicle electrical work. Without it, they cannot join our platform.
ID and business verification
Each specialist uploads a government-issued photo ID matched to their business registration. We cross-reference the address on file with official records to confirm they operate from a legitimate workshop.
Review and ongoing monitoring
After initial verification, specialists earn reviews from car owners. Low ratings or repeated complaints trigger re-verification. We also monitor for licence renewals — expired credentials result in immediate suspension.
Why this matters
Many platforms list electricians without verifying credentials. OBD2 Online ensures every specialist on our network holds valid trade documentation and operates from a verified business location. This protects you from unqualified repairs.
