What Engine Diagnostics Can Tell You
Modern vehicles are full of sensors and computer-controlled systems, all working together to keep things running smoothly. When something goes wrong, engine diagnostics help uncover the cause quickly. A diagnostic scan reads error codes stored in the vehicle’s onboard computer, which can relate to issues with airflow, ignition, fuel, sensors or emissions systems. These codes give your mechanic a starting point for further inspection and testing. Getting your car scanned early can prevent a minor problem from turning into a costly repair. It also helps confirm what’s working properly, giving you peace of mind when everything checks out.
What is engine diagnostics?
Engine diagnostics is the process of using specialised tools to scan your car’s computer for fault codes. These codes indicate possible issues with engine performance, emissions, sensors or other systems and help mechanics identify what needs repair or further testing.
Why is my check engine light on?
The check engine light can turn on for many reasons—anything from a loose fuel cap to a serious mechanical fault. Engine diagnostics help pinpoint the cause, so you don’t waste time or money fixing the wrong thing.
Can engine diagnostics fix the problem?
Diagnostics identify what’s wrong, but don’t fix the issue by themselves. Once the fault is located, your mechanic can recommend and carry out the necessary repairs. The diagnostic process simply ensures that the repairs are targeted and accurate.
