Automotive Computer Diagnostics

🔍 What Is Automotive Computer Diagnostics?

Automotive computer diagnostics involve using specialized software and tools to communicate with your vehicle’s onboard computer systems. These systems monitor and control various components, including the engine, transmission, brakes, and emissions systems. When a problem arises, the vehicle's computer generates Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), which our technicians can retrieve and interpret to pinpoint the exact issue .

⚙️ How It Works

  1. Connection: We connect a professional scan tool to your vehicle's OBD-II (On-Board Diagnostics) port, typically located under the dashboard.

  2. Data Retrieval: The scan tool communicates with your vehicle's computer to retrieve DTCs and live data from various sensors and control modules.

  3. Analysis: Our technicians analyze the retrieved data to identify any malfunctions or areas requiring attention.

  4. Reporting: We provide you with a comprehensive report detailing the findings and recommend necessary repairs or maintenance.
