Are you struggling with electrical issues in your heavy-duty vehicle? At Fleetworks Inc. in Oakland & Santa Fe Springs, CA, we understand the complexities of modern diesel engines and offer a comprehensive diagnostic and electrical service to keep electrical gremlins at bay.
Will a Code Reader Detect a Bad Engine?
A code reader can detect engine issues by reading diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) stored in the vehicle's computer system. However, it cannot directly confirm a bad engine. For a definitive diagnosis, a comprehensive engine analysis by professional mechanics is essential.
What Does a Full Diagnostic Do?
A full diagnostic comprehensively assesses a vehicle's engine, transmission, exhaust system, and other major components. It identifies underlying issues, ensures efficient operation, and helps in preventive maintenance, which extends the lifespan of your vehicle.
What Causes Electrical Problems in Heavy-Duty Trucks?
Electrical problems in heavy-duty trucks can be complex and varied. Because of this, there are numerous reasons why your heavy-duty truck's electrical components may suffer. Below are seven of the most common to be aware of:
Battery Issues: A common cause of electrical failure, often due to age or poor maintenance, leads to inadequate power supply
Alternator Failure: Essential for charging the battery; if it fails, the electrical system can falter, affecting vehicle performance
Wiring Problems: Corroded, loose, or damaged wires can disrupt electrical flow, causing intermittent or complete power loss
Faulty Starter: A defective starter can prevent the engine from turning over, rendering the vehicle inoperable
Ground Connection Issues: Poor ground connections can lead to erratic electrical behavior, impacting various systems
Blown Fuses: Indicate an underlying issue, often resulting from overcurrent, and need immediate attention
ECM Problems: The Engine Control Module (ECM) is the truck's computer; its failure can cause widespread issues, affecting multiple systems
