Following on from our previous post about the C63 AMG Mercedes with a number of faults following a crash repair, we used the Bosch KTS 590 to do a global scan and identify a number of issues.

We also checked for bulletins using the incredible resource of DDTSB from DiagnoseDan

We then used the remote services from our awesome community partner Core Diagnostics to programme the headlamp - thanks to Ryan and Team Core 👌

The next step is to remove the bumpers and check for broken or damaged wires or missing connectors, the detective work continues…….

It’s that time of year when we see a lot of vehicles coming into the workshop with battery drain issues.

Our first check is always the battery itself and we use batteries from our awesome SimplyDiag.net community partners VARTA Automotive

Happy weekend everyone!

Earlier this week we had a C63 AMG Mercedes come into the workshop with many faults following a crash repair.

We used the services of our awesome SimplyDiag.net community partners Core Diagnostics to code in new headlamp,

Also we used the Bosch KTS to do a big picture assessment and to find evidence of wiring repairs.

Next step is to do a strip down and some further tests to pinpoint the issues, watch out for the next video on this vehicle………..

A Vauxhall Adam came in this week from another workshop with a battery drain.

Our approach to this investigation started with using the battery support from our awesome community partners Topdon UK

We set it to the nominal battery voltage 12.6v and waited to see what got hot 🔥 to give us an idea of where we need to be looking…..

Thermal imaging is a very efficient and cost effective method which helps to keep the bills down for our customers 👌

As you can see from the pictures we have a hot spot behind the passenger kick panel. Where there’s heat in a circuit there’s current flow…..

We’ll get authorisation from the customer to strip it down for further testing - Trouble shooting the SimplyDiag way 👍

Christmas Hrs at the workshop this year as follows:

24 - 28 Dec closed
31 Dec - 4 Jan closed

Other than that, we're open, if the door is down it doesn't mean we're closed, the heating is probably on. Enquire at Carcraft reception 👍

The original fault on the Fiat Panda in our previous post was the clock flashing - so we used the services from our awesome community partners OSCA to verify that the configuration for vehicle was correct.

The thing is we don’t know what’s been done before….

We suspect someone has changed the configuration previously and replaced parts - not necessarily correct for the vehicle…..

We’re definitely coming across these kind of issues more often now.

As always OSCA were extremely helpful and very patient with yet another detective job 🕵️‍♂️ - big massive thank you to Michael 👌

We then did some checks on the wiring making sure there were no missing power supplies.

So our conclusion was to suspect a faulty instrument panel which we can replace and programme again using the awesome services from our friends at OSCA.

Earlier this week this Fiat panda (white with 4 wheels) came into the workshop from a trader with smashed buttons on the dash - after replacing the buttons the clock continued to flash and we were still unable to set the time or access the menu.

Vehicles coming from auctions into the used car market frequently have issues involving replacement modules and computers which our member garages battle with every day.

Sometimes this means we have to be more of a detective than a mechanic to get to the root cause and first time fix.

Due to our years of experience, the strength of our network and our awesome community partners resolving this type of issue is often a smoother road for our simplydiag.net members - what can Simply Diagnostics and our partners do to help you?

This week we had a Hyundai ix20 in the workshop with locking issues - it would unlock but wouldn’t lock using the keys or locking button in the car

Using the wiring diagram from our awesome community partners HELLA Gutmann Solutions it made it really simple to see the whole system and how it was controlled from one easy to read wiring diagram 👌

We were able to trace the fault to a faulty fuse box providing an economical first time fix for our customer 👍
