About Black Horse Repairs

One workshop, two crafts. We repair the electronics others give up on — and we write the software that keeps the bench moving.

Our story

Born on the bench, built for real work

Black Horse Repairs started with a simple belief: modern electronics aren't disposable. We diagnose, repair and restore devices that would otherwise end up in a landfill.

What began as engine control module (ECM) diagnostics grew into full board-level repair — laptops, motherboards, CPU socket replacement and complex electronic assemblies. Along the way we started building our own tools, and those tools became products.

Today we're two things at once: a repair shop for automotive and consumer electronics, and a software house that designs, builds and distributes specialized software — including what we believe is the best software for budget BGA rework machines.

What we do

Two crafts, one standard

Repair

ECMs and engine control units, laptops and motherboards, automotive diagnostic equipment and general electronics. Component-level work, smart battery diagnostics and the jobs other shops turn away.

Software

BGA rework station software, open-source PID controllers, multimeter display tools, eBay automation and battery analyzers — plus custom development for other companies, billed by the hour.

How we work

Why people choose us

We fix what others won't

Component-level repair is slow, precise work. We're comfortable with the boards most shops write off.

Engineer's mindset

Every repair and every product is treated like an engineering problem — diagnosed, measured and verified.

Tools we actually use

Our software isn't vapourware. It runs on our own bench every day before it ever reaches a customer.
