Diagnostics
Our Services
With vehicle technology becoming more sophisticated each year, it is essential that workshops
invest in the right equipment. At Phillips Motor Services we have the latest Snap-on MODIS vehicle system management
scanner with modules that cover most European and Japanese vehicles. We are able to carry our a variety of tasks
from resetting service indicators to diagnosing complex engine management and Anti Lock Braking faults.
Why is specialist diagnostic equipment needed ?
Modern vehicles are controlled by numerous sensors and electronic components that are linked to
the main computer that controls how the vehicle functions. Occasionally a fault may occur with one of the sensors
or with the control unit itself. By using our sophisticated diagnostic tools with can trace and identify the cause
of the fault and then rectify it.
What faults can be diagnosed ?
Most of the functions on a modern car are controlled electronically and, when faulty,
require specialist diagnostics. These include:
- Ignition System

Warning lights
Most system faults will be shown by a warning light on the dashboard indicating that the
fault requires investigation.
