Your car includes an On-Board Diagnostic Computer (OBD) that alerts you when there's a problem with your vehicle or a service you need. For example, you might see an alert to change your oil when you're nearing time for that service. While some warning lights are easy enough to understand, others can be more complicated.
The check engine light is one warning that requires more information to correct. This light can be triggered in several ways. Finding out what's wrong requires diagnostic tools that can translate the specific code the vehicle associates with the warning light.
Whether you receive a dashboard warning light or not, it's always a good idea to listen to your intuition when something doesn't feel right. No one knows your car like you and it's always better to correct a small problem before it has the chance to turn into a large one.
When your car needs a computer diagnostic, contact Southland Auto and Diesel. Automotive diagnostics are one of the many services we provide for our customers across Spring Valley, MN, Preston, MN, Grand Meadow, MN, and surrounding areas.

The service technicians at Southland Auto and Diesel will use a diagnostic tool to read error codes associated with your warning lights. They can then inspect your vehicle and confirm the cause of the problem followed by discussing the required repairs with you. Our auto repair shop features state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment that works with many vehicle makes and models. Once you know the problem, you can make an informed decision about the repairs.
Tip: If the check engine light is on, try securing your gas cap. Sometimes the gas cap can trigger an error message.
