Measuring what matters helps us to work efficiently, to bill accurately, so you can pay for what you need.
TODAY’S DIESEL PICKUPS ARE DEEP INTO THE DATA
Today’s diesel engine fault detection and diagnostic systems log and track data related directly to diesel engine problems and sync with data related to preventative and predictive engine maintenance measures. Computer diagnostics provide sophisticated data interaction in the processes of identifying the types and the locations of engine faults using multi-level signal processing techniques which correlate the targeted data with an exhaustive, predefined database.
Wish as we may, not all diesel engine problems can be positively identified, so in addition to identifying problems, computer diagnostic systems also provide warning signals for unidentified problems when they are detected. The diagnostic database can, sometimes, then be modified and updated to include new diesel engine faults related to the prior warning signals, which in time, improves the process of diagnosis wherein many of the previously unidentified problems are then able to be identified with precise solutions. The diesel technician’s service procedure can then be applied directly to what previously was just a warning signal, allowing him or her to solve the problem with the appropriate repair and maintenance procedure that may have previously gone unaddressed.
Precise, quick, and accurate; three words that save you money and decrease your downtime.
Diesel engine repair and diesel truck service that is precise, quick, and accurate, saves you money and reduces your downtime. The diesel service technicians at Cummins Automotive & Diesel Service utilize sophisticated computer diagnostic systems to quickly get from fault to fix for fast and accurate repairs.
INJECTOR DIAGNOSTICS
Today’s diesel engines are equipped with onboard diagnostics that can detect injector issues. If your ECM (Engine Control Module) identifies a problem with the injectors, it should illuminate the dashboard’s Check Engine Light. When the Check Engine Light is illuminated, you should have your diesel truck inspected by a qualified mechanic to determine the issue or problem that triggered the light.
Fuel injector diagnostics tests will show each injector’s current performance output, specifically, how much fuel is flowing through the injector during designated RPM loads. Injectors which test good for output, or flow-through amounts, will be free of particle buildup and obstructions. If your diesel truck lacks power or fuel efficiency, Cummins Automotive & Diesel Service is here to run fuel injector diagnostics on your diesel injection system to assess your injectors functional efficiency at the various RPM loads.
PROBLEMS REVEALED WITH DIESEL INJECTOR DIAGNOSTICS
If your diesel pickup truck exhibits the signs of diesel injector problems, our diesel injector diagnostics can accurately diagnose the issue before attempting to repair something. An accurate diagnosis will save time and money while preventing the wasteful replacement of components which do not address the problem. If injector diagnostics reveals the injectors are faulty, the injectors will either be repaired or replaced.
SPECIFIC INJECTOR DIAGNOSTICS
When injector diagnostics reveal faulty injectors, the extent of damage needs to be assessed. A visual inspection for injector leaks, damage, carbon buildup, or loose connections, will be carried out. An injector balance diagnostic test can assess the uniformity of fuel delivery. A compression test can detect cylinder-related issues. A fuel pressure test can assess the fuel system’s efficiency. Examining the engine control module’s error codes can help to further pinpoint the issue.
After the diesel fuel injectors are repaired or replaced, they are calibrated to ensure they deliver the correct amount of fuel at the precise timing. The fuel system is leak tested and inspected for leaks, verifying all connections are good. The engine is started and functional tested to ensure that the new or replacement injectors are functioning correctly without efficiency or performance issues.
