Common questions
- My check engine light is on. Is reading the code enough?
- A code points to a system, not always the failed part. We combine fault codes, live data, and testing to confirm the cause before recommending a repair.
- Why does my battery keep dying?
- It can be the battery, the charging system, or an electrical draw while parked. We test each one and measure any drain to find the cause.

- When should I bring my car in for diagnostics and electrical repair?

- How much will diagnostics and electrical repair cost?
- Check engine light diagnostics start at $150, with additional charges possible for more extensive testing. For repairs, we inspect the vehicle, explain what we found, and wait for your approval before work starts.
- Does your warranty cover diagnostics and electrical repair?
- Eligible repairs include a 2-year / 24,000-mile warranty, whichever comes first. Ask which work on your estimate is covered.
