What Is Car Diagnostics?
Car diagnostics is the process of scanning your vehicle’s electronic systems to identify issues. Modern vehicles are equipped with sensors and control units that generate error codes when something goes wrong.
These codes help mechanics locate faults without unnecessary guesswork.
Our diagnostic tests read this data in minutes. It’s a quick, effective way to spot problems before they become serious.
This service is essential for today’s cars, which rely heavily on electronic systems to function properly.
Car Diagnostic Services
At Vehicle Keys And Electrical, we offer comprehensive car diagnostic testing for vehicles of all makes and models. Using advanced scanners, we assess key systems such as the engine, battery, sensors, and electrical components. Once the test is complete, our technicians explain the results clearly and suggest the next steps.
Whether you're responding to a warning light or carrying out routine checks, we provide reliable diagnostics that give you peace of mind.
Engine Diagnostics
We carry out detailed engine diagnostics to identify faults such as misfiring, stalling, or loss of power. Our tools read live engine data to pinpoint the exact cause, allowing us to diagnose the issue efficiently.
This service helps prevent engine damage and keeps your vehicle running at its best.
Electrical System Checks
Our technicians inspect the electrical systems that control your lights, windows, ignition, and more. We test for faults in wiring, relays, fuses, and sensors to ensure everything is operating safely and reliably.
Electrical issues can lead to breakdowns, so early detection is essential.
Warning Light Scans
We use diagnostic tools to read fault codes behind dashboard warning lights, helping identify problems in systems such as airbags, brakes, or the engine. Ignoring these lights can be risky.
Our scans provide quick answers and help you take the right action.
Battery and Charging System Testing
We test your battery, alternator, and overall charging system to ensure your car has the power it needs. A weak battery can cause starting problems or leave you stranded, especially in cold weather.
Our tests check performance and highlight any issues early on.
Emissions Testing
Our emissions checks analyse your vehicle’s exhaust gases to identify pollutants and ensure compliance with environmental standards. Faulty exhaust components can affect performance and lead to MOT failures.
We help keep your car road legal and eco-friendly.
Sensor and ECU Fault Detection
We scan the car’s sensors and electronic control unit (ECU) for malfunctions. These systems control essential functions like fuel injection and emissions. A faulty sensor can cause multiple issues.
Our tests help isolate the fault quickly and accurately.
Types of Issues We Can Detect
Our diagnostic tools can detect a wide variety of problems across your vehicle's key systems. These include engine issues such as misfires, low compression, or fuel delivery faults, as well as problems with the transmission, battery, or alternator. We can also uncover faults within the ABS system, airbags, emission controls, and onboard sensors.
If your vehicle is running rough, consuming more fuel than usual, or showing warning lights, a diagnostic test can pinpoint the underlying cause. Even minor electrical faults can affect overall performance.
With early detection, we help prevent these issues from escalating. No guesswork, just accurate insights into your car’s condition using up-to-date scanning technology.
