Suburbs in Burleigh
The southern Gold Coast is a string of beach suburbs along the Gold Coast Highway, broken up by Burleigh Head, Tallebudgera Creek and Currumbin Creek. The light rail now reaches Burleigh Heads. Inland, Robina and Varsity Lakes are master-planned suburbs around a town centre, Bond University and the end of the train line, while West Burleigh, Miami and Varsity Lakes have light industrial streets. At the southern end, Gold Coast Airport at Bilinga and the Tugun Bypass bring fleet and airport traffic. So the work ranges from salty surf cars to commuter hatchbacks, trade vans and touring 4WDs.

Common auto electrical jobs in Burleigh
Beaches, creeks, light industry and the airport give the southern Gold Coast a broad spread of auto electrical work.
Surf cars and salty driveways
From North Burleigh to Snapper Rocks, plenty of cars live within sight of the surf and come home wet from beach car parks. Salt spray settles on the battery, the earth points and every connector at the front of the car. It works slowly, and the first sign is often a car that is slow to crank or a light that stops working. Clean the terminals, check earths and seal plugs before they fail. Our guide on cleaning corroded battery terminals shows the right method.

Trade vans from the light industrial streets
The industrial streets around Kortum Drive and Township Drive in West Burleigh, and off Christine Avenue and Scottsdale Drive in Varsity Lakes, are full of trade businesses, workshops and suppliers. Their vans and utes carry inverters, lights, fridges and tool chargers. Accessories wired straight to the battery without fuses or relays are a common source of faults and flat batteries. A neat fused setup and a regular charging system check keep work vehicles reliable.

Caravans and 4WDs heading south
With the Pacific Motorway and the Tugun Bypass carrying traffic straight into northern New South Wales, the southern Gold Coast is a natural starting point for road trips. Many locals tow caravans or run 4WDs with dual batteries, fridges and solar. Charging problems between the car and van are the most common complaint. Our guide on how much solar you need for your caravan helps when planning a setup.

Creek ramps and trailer corrosion
Tallebudgera and Currumbin creeks both have public boat ramps, including Awoonga Avenue at Burleigh Heads and Winders Park at Currumbin. Tidal creek water is still salt water, and trailers that launch here suffer the same corrosion as those used at the Broadwater. Sealed LED lights, tinned wire and a new plug every few seasons make a big difference. Test the lights at home before each trip so a fault does not ruin the day.
