Advanced Auto Diagnostics In Westerville, OH

When the Check Engine Light comes on, we utilize advanced diagnostic tools to read the error codes stored in your car's computer. These codes indicate specific issues that may need attention. Our skilled mechanics use scanners to access this information efficiently. Each code corresponds to a particular problem, such as a faulty sensor or an engine misfire. By identifying these codes, we can accurately pinpoint the problem area, ultimately saving you both time and money on repairs. 

Some common codes we encounter include P0300, which indicates random misfires, and P0420, which points to catalytic converter issues. Once we've retrieved the codes, we can run additional tests to confirm the exact nature of the problem and ensure your vehicle is back to optimal performance.

Cars today have many electronic parts. This makes finding problems harder.

Our Columbus shop has techs who specialize in electronics. We know how to test sensors, modules, and wiring. This helps pinpoint exact issues.

Some problems need more than just reading codes. Techs might use lab scopes to check electrical signals. They also use multimeters to test circuits.

For tricky problems, our shop uses factory-level diagnostic software. This gives us access to the same info as dealerships. It helps with hard-to-solve issues in newer cars.

Several issues can trigger the Check Engine Light:

• Loose gas cap.
• Faulty oxygen sensor.
• Bad spark plugs or wires.
• Failing catalytic converter.
• Mass airflow sensor problems.
