Fact: On board diagnosis is a system in your vehicle that detects certain faults in the electronic control components, records a code and illuminates a check engine or MIL light. When a check engine or malfunction indicator lamp comes on, plugging in a scan tool and scanning for codes and freeze data is just the first step in the process. Most codes then have a diagnostic flow chart of procedures to follow to trace the problem and recommend a repair, sometimes to no avail (see myth 5). Diagnosing and repairing modern vehicles is a highly complicated process demanding the best technicians, tools, training and information and can be quite complicated and expensive. Apex uses the Alldata information system in conjunction with the Snap-on Verus and Mac Tools Pegisys/Navigator integrated diagnostic platform tools. These ultra hightech platforms combine a scan tool, power graphing meter, and digital storage oscilloscope with an internal database and internet access. This equipment used in conjunction with our years of experience, knowledge and advanced level training, results in Apex being the best equipped shop to diagnose your vehicles' problems, saving you trouble by getting it right the first time.
