On-Board Diagnostics: How Does It Work?

Your onboard diagnostics for your vehicle is a very intricate system that involves a professional review. But how does this complex system function, and why should you pay attention to the lights inside your dashboard? 

How It Works 

Your vehicle has a computer that continuously checks to ensure everything is running correctly. This computer will sometimes find a fault in one of your systems and send a signal to your dashboard that will show up as a light indicator letting you know something is wrong. Once the light comes on, it's time to take your vehicle to a professional automotive location that will have the right tool to check which problems your car is having. 

Checking For Problems 

Once your dashboard has the light indicators on, it's usually time to send your car over to a place like Autozone or Weber to run a complex diagnostic to get to the bottom of your vehicle's problem. The computer in your car sends signals to your device that turn into a specific code, which can tell us precisely what is wrong. Our device can then plug into your vehicle and run a report to check and see what's going on.

Recognizing the Need for New Shocks or Struts: The Top 3 Signs

Posted By Weber Automotive
June 15, 2025 Category: Vehicle Maintenance, Shocks And Struts, Weber Automotive, Car Safety, Suspension System

When Comfort Turns into Concern At Weber Automotive, we’re committed to keeping your vehicle not just running—but running safely and smoothly. Your shocks and struts play a critical role in both ride comfort and driver control. Knowing when they need replacement can prevent costly issues and improve overall safety. Here are the top three signs it might be time to have your shocks or struts inspected. Understanding the Signs of Worn Shocks or Struts 1. Excessive Bouncing or Clunking One of the most obvious signs is a bouncy or unstable ride. If your vehicle continues to bounce after hitting a bump or dip, your shocks may be worn. Clunking noises when going over uneven surfaces can also point to loose or damaged components. Think of your tires like basketballs—they must maintain contact with the road. When shocks fail, tire contact is reduced, which decreases your control and increases stopping distances. 2. Sliding Around Turns Are you feeling like your car is “drifting” or sliding during turns? This can indicate that your shocks or struts are no longer stabilizing your vehicle properly. Good suspension keeps your tires firmly grounded through corners. Without it, you lose handling precision and control—putting yourself and others at greater risk. 3. Increased Stopping Distances Worn shocks and struts may significantly increase how long it takes your vehicle to come to a complete stop. If you’re noticing longer stopping di
