Auto Diagnostics in Dayton and Eldersburg, MD

Automotive Diagnostics

Most cars come with computer systems onboard to warn you if there are any issues with your car. These diagnostics systems use a universal warning light system on your dashboard to notify you or our award-winning local technicians of any issues. 

A check engine light (also known as a malfunction indicator lamp) is a signal from your car’s computer system that there is an issue with your vehicle. The issue could be minor like a loose fuel cap or it could be serious such as engine issues. Whenever your check engine light comes on, it is important to get your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. Whatever issue your vehicle may be experiencing, it is imperative that you get it looked at by a professional before more serious problems arise.
