The modern car is heavily dependant on Electronic Control Units ( ECU’s ), which not only control the engine’s fuel and ignition systems but can control anything from the radio, windscreen wipers, air conditioning, brakes, power steering, cruise control, transmission units and security systems and many other items. * For this reason we have invested in the latest electronic test equipment available.
Our inspections process includes many features including digital paint depth meters, advanced electronic diagnostic test equipment, digital photographs and e-mailed reports.
The diagnostic equipment can record any component fault codes stored in the vehicle's computer memory. If there are no fault codes present, it may possible to determine whether any faults have been present previously and subsequently erased.
