Computerized Engine Diagnostics in Southaven MS

 

Tune-up, Fuel Injection Cleaning, Emission Repair

 

Your vehicle's dashboard has lots of lights that turn on when there is an issue with your car. If even one of these lights turns on while you are driving, it can be a cause for alarm. These warning lights are turned on by your vehicle's computer; the various parts of your vehicle send signals to the computer when there is an issue with your vehicle.

Because modern vehicles contain more technology and features than ever, there can be multiple reasons why a particular dashboard light turns on, making it difficult to troubleshoot without the proper tools.

Your Reliable Shop for Computer Diagnostics

When it comes to vehicle computer diagnostics, having an expert on your side when one or more of your dashboard lights turn on is important. It’s difficult to troubleshoot these warning lights without owning the proper tools. We at Kar-Guard in Southaven MS are those auto repair experts. Our team of ASE-certified technicians can perform a computer diagnostic on your vehicle and use diagnostic trouble codes to determine which part of your vehicle needs attention.

How Our Diagnostic Equipment is Comprehensive

The diagnostic process at Kar-Guard is comprehensive. While auto parts stores typically use a basic ‘code reader’ that costs around $100, Kar-Guard employs a diagnostic machine worth approximately $5,000. Unlike just providing a code, our inspection identifies over 10 potential issues that could be causing the problem. Our ASE-certified expert technicians thoroughly examine your vehicle.

What Do All the Lights on My Dashboard Mean?

Let’s delve into the meanings of some common dashboard warning lights:

Check Engine Light - This light could mean several things, like a loose fuel cap, a problem with your transmission, overheating, low oil pressure, or an entirely different issue.

Oil Pressure Light - This means there is an issue with your car's oil pressure system. There is either not enough oil in your vehicle or your oil pump isn't circulating enough fluid to properly lubricate the surfaces inside your vehicle.

Tire Pressure Warning Light - These lights signal that the pressure in one or more of your tires is either too high or too low. If you are in the 38671 or 38672 areas or nearby, stop into Kar-Guard so we can rebalance your tire pressure.

Coolant Temperature Warning Light: This light will come on if your engine is overheating. To prevent engine damage, check your coolant level, radiator, and cooling system.

 

Brake System Warning Light: This light indicates braking system issues. This could include low brake fluid, worn brake pads, or a malfunctioning ABS (anti-lock braking system). We recommend that you always address brake-related problems immediately for safety reasons.
