Our diagnostic service goes beyond the basics. Whether you’re facing a Check Engine, ABS, or traction-control light, our technicians will pinpoint the issue quickly and accurately. We use OEM-grade scan tools that communicate directly with your car’s onboard systems—ensuring we read every fault and provide the right fix the first time.

Advanced Auto Diagnostics

Advanced Diagnostic Services We Offer

We use advanced diagnostic tools to accurately identify issues with your engine, brakes, transmission, electrical systems, and more. Our certified technicians ensure fast, reliable solutions, saving you time, money, and guesswork.

Check Engine Light Diagnostics

Check Engine Light Diagnostics

We use advanced diagnostic scanners to read and decode engine fault codes accurately. These tools help identify issues such as misfires, emissions problems, sensor failures, or other malfunctions that trigger the Check Engine light. With precise diagnostics, we find the root cause quickly and recommend the right repair to restore performance.

ABS and Traction Control Scans

ABS and Traction Control Scans

ur diagnostic system detects issues within your anti-lock braking system (ABS) and traction control modules. We identify faults in wheel speed sensors, hydraulic control units, and electronic modules that affect braking stability. Accurate diagnostics ensure your vehicle maintains safe, responsive braking and traction performance.

Transmission Fault Code Retrieval

Transmission Fault Code Retrieval

We access your vehicle’s transmission control unit to retrieve stored fault codes and analyze system data. This helps us detect early signs of shifting problems, solenoid failures, or sensor malfunctions. Prompt diagnosis allows for accurate repairs, preventing minor transmission issues from turning into major, costly drivetrain repairs down the road.

Live Engine Data Monitoring OBD II PID Analysis

Live Engine Data Monitoring (OBD-II PID Analysis)

We monitor real-time engine performance data such as fuel trims, RPM, throttle position, and airflow. This advanced approach helps us detect subtle or intermittent issues that may not trigger fault codes. By analyzing live data, we pinpoint performance irregularities and ensure accurate repairs that keep your engine running smoothly.

Sensor and Module Testing

Sensor and Module Testing

We thoroughly test the operation and communication of key components such as oxygen sensors, MAF sensors, ignition modules, and control units. Verifying proper function ensures your vehicle’s electronic systems are running correctly. This helps prevent performance issues, improves fuel efficiency, and supports accurate diagnostics for long-term engine reliability and safety.

Battery and Charging System Diagnostics

Battery and Charging System Diagnostics

Using advanced diagnostic tools, we test voltage output, cranking power, and charging efficiency to identify weak batteries, failing alternators, or parasitic drains. Accurate testing allows early detection of electrical issues, helping prevent unexpected breakdowns and ensuring your vehicle starts reliably and operates smoothly during driving.

Why Choose Our Advanced Diagnostics

Certified Expertise

Precision, Not Guesswork

We believe in accuracy over assumptions. By using real-time data and pinpoint testing methods, we avoid unnecessary part replacements and save you money in the process.

Full-System Evaluation

Every diagnostic session includes a comprehensive check of your vehicle’s electronic and mechanical systems. We leave no warning light unexplained and no fault code ignored. It’s how we protect your vehicle—and your wallet—from future issues.

What’s Included in Your Diagnosis

When you bring your vehicle to Brian’s Tire & Service, our Advanced Auto Diagnostics includes far more than a basic scan. We begin by connecting high-level scan tools to your vehicle’s onboard computer systems. This allows us to retrieve stored and active fault codes from the engine, transmission, ABS, traction control, and other electronic modules. 

Next, we review live engine data, known as OBD-II PIDs, to observe how different systems perform in real time. This helps us catch intermittent problems that may not trigger a warning light. Our team also performs a basic visual check of connectors and wiring to rule out simple issues. 

Once complete, you’ll receive a clear explanation of the findings, along with honest repair recommendations if needed. No guesswork. No pressure. Just accurate diagnostics you can trust.
