A no-start condition may involve the battery or starting circuit, fuel delivery, ignition or engine-control system, immobilizer, or mechanical engine condition. Testing the vehicle in the failed state helps identify the cause before parts are replaced.

Common symptoms

"My car won't start at all"
"I hear a single click when I turn the key"
"The engine cranks but never fires"
"It starts sometimes but not always"

What we check

01 Battery state-of-charge, cranking voltage, and parasitic draw if relevant
02 Starter current and the starting circuit (relays, grounds, neutral / clutch switch)
03 Fuel pressure and the operation of the fuel pump
04 Spark availability, ignition control, and related engine-position sensor inputs
05 ECM communication, anti-theft / immobilizer status, and crank-no-start related codes

No-start conditions are well-suited to mobile diagnosis: the vehicle does not need to be towed, and the actual conditions at your location often help identify the cause.

Once the cause is confirmed, many common repairs—such as battery, starter, relay, sensor, wiring, or ignition-component replacement—can be completed on-site.

A note on shop equipment

Some repairs cannot be completed safely at a mobile location. After the diagnostic, we will tell you whether the work can be done on-site or whether shop equipment is required, before any repair begins.
