How Does It Work?
Your vehicle is built with on-board electronics and software that monitors your vehicle as you drive it and keeps track of all things that occur whilst driving. This software allows for technicians to get a hold of that data through certain software and vehicle computer diagnostics tools in order to find when and how a problem might have occurred with your vehicle.
Is it that easy?
To identify the problem with your vehicle, one of our ASE Certified technicians will use a diagnostics tool to obtain a code corresponding to a certain fault with your automobile. This code is then used to perform another series of tests on the vehicle to confirm the issue is the one that corresponds with the code obtained from the diagnostics tool.
Automotive diagnostics makes finding a difficult problem very easy and efficient. Sometimes, even the best mechanic cannot figure out an issue with a vehicle and finding those challenging issues is why computers are needed.

Once our software finds the problem, the job is that much easier as now our mechanics have saved valuable time, which in turn leads to lower repair costs and quicker repairs.
