Pulling Check Engine Light Codes
When the check engine light illuminates, the first step is to retrieve the codes stored in the vehicle's computer system. At Generational Auto, our technicians use advanced diagnostic tools to access these codes, providing valuable insights into the specific issues affecting your vehicle. Each code corresponds to a specific issue with the engine, emissions system, or other vehicle components.
Understanding Diagnostic Testing
In addition to pulling codes, our diagnostic process involves comprehensive testing to pinpoint the root cause of the issue. Some examples of tests we run are smoke testing, wire tracing, compression tests, and many more! The type of testing that is performed is dependent on the underlying issue, or the code the technician pulls. Ultimately, this testing is done to ensure our certified technicians get to the bottom of what the issue is.
