Understanding Vehicle Repairs and Associated Costs
When a Known Fix Exists:
If the diagnostic trouble code retrieved by your obd live data scanner corresponds to a known and documented repair, the RepairSolutions 2 app will automatically generate a dedicated repair report. This report provides valuable information such as a list of necessary parts for the repair and an estimation of the total repair cost.
When a Fix is Not Immediately Available:
In situations where a known fix is not immediately available for the detected code, your diagnostic information will be categorized under the “Needs Attention” report section within the app. In these cases, Innova’s expert technicians will proactively investigate the issue and conduct research to identify a solution. A potential fix for your specific issue may become available within approximately 10 business days.
