Performing pre- and post-repair diagnostic scanning is crucial for identifying all issues and ensuring complete system operation after collision repairs. At AAA Electronics, we provide comprehensive scanning services using the latest OEM-approved scan tools and software for all makes and models.The Importance of Pre-Repair ScanningBefore beginning any repair work, a complete pre-repair system scan should be performed to:
- Retrieve any existing diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)
- Identify faults in all vehicle control modules and networks
- Assess systems impacted by the damage
- Provide a baseline for programming needs after repairs
Many collision damage issues can remain undetected without a full pre-scan. This data provides valuable information for the repair plan and process.
Post-Repair Diagnostic Scanning
Once repairs are complete, a thorough post-repair scan is necessary to:
- Clear any DTCs related to removed/replaced components
- Verify no additional faults have been introduced
- Confirm all safety systems are operating properly
- Identify any remaining programming requirements
Even minor body repairs can affect vehicle systems like airbags, anti-lock brakes, stability control, ADAS operations, and more. Post-scans ensure everything has been properly reinitialized and no issues remain.
