Default I need an electrician for my Civic

Anything I should look out for? or anything bs that you think the electrician might try to charge me with?

I'm having bad electrical problems, some places like the blinkers I'm missing ground......my car has already killed like 3-4 distributors...and with the new distributor I have sometimes I need to crank a lot for the car to start....my radio sometimes stars to lose power and then it comes back........and sometimes my alarm takes a while to react...

also do you guys know how much they will probably charge me and are they going to try to bs me?

Look around for a reputable company/person that knows what they are doing. Try asking friends, family, etc.. Then search online for reviews, check the Better Business Bureau for complaints on any company that you are considering. Do your homework first.

I believe there are mechanics that are trained in this sort of thing, I'm really not sure. Try local shops and ask them how much they charge, etc..

any reputable automotive shop that has trained/up-to-date techs can diagnose the problem.

looking at about $200+ for diagnoses only.
