Thompson Electrical and Electronics Repairs | Experienced Electricians in Pontiac, MI

Yes, this is a common issue we see in Pontiac homes, often caused by old or faulty wiring connections at the fan or in the switch box. Our electricians can perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the problem. We'll safely repair or replace the wiring and ensure the fixture is properly installed and grounded, restoring reliable operation and preventing potential fire hazards.

Frequent circuit breaker trips, a burning smell near the panel, flickering lights when appliances turn on, or an outdated fuse box are all clear warning signs. In older Pontiac homes, these issues often point to an overloaded system or improper grounding. We can inspect your electric panel, perform necessary repairs, or recommend a safe, code-compliant upgrade to handle modern electrical demands.

Proper grounding is critical for safety—it directs stray electrical current safely into the earth, preventing shocks, protecting appliances, and reducing fire risk. Many local homes have older, inadequate grounding systems. Our electricians can perform an electrical inspection to test your home's grounding. If needed, we can install or repair grounding rods and wiring at your main panel and outlets to ensure your family and property are protected.
