Light Commercial Vehicle Diagnostics: Keeping Your Business Fleet in Top Gear

When your business depends on light commercial vehicles (LCVs), every hour counts. Whether you’re delivering goods, managing a mobile service team, or transporting materials, your vehicles are the backbone of your operations. That’s why at Kearney Group Diagnostics (KGD), we specialise in Light Commercial Vehicle Diagnostics — helping you prevent downtime, cut costs, and keep your business moving.

What Are Light Commercial Vehicle Diagnostics?

Light commercial vehicles include vans, pickups, and small trucks — vehicles designed to handle business workloads while being agile and efficient. A diagnostic check is like a digital deep dive into your vehicle’s brain, allowing our technicians to identify existing or potential problems hidden within the complex systems that power your LCV.

Using industry-leading diagnostic tools, we connect directly to your vehicle’s onboard computer to scan for fault codes and data irregularities in key systems such as:

  • Engine management and fuel systems
  • Transmission and clutch control
  • Braking and suspension
  • Electrical and charging systems
  • Emission and DPF control
  • Airbags and safety components

Our detailed diagnostic process helps spot issues before they become costly breakdowns, saving you time, money, and unnecessary stress.

Why Diagnostics Are Essential for Light Commercial Vehicles

Unlike personal cars, LCVs are business-critical assets. They’re on the road daily, often under heavy loads or tight schedules — which means wear and tear happens faster. Ignoring small issues can lead to major mechanical failures and lost productivity.

Here’s why regular diagnostics with KGD make sense:

  • 🕒 Reduce Downtime – Identify and fix problems early to avoid unscheduled repairs.
  • 💸 Lower Costs – Prevent major component failures that could cost thousands.
  • 🚦 Improve Efficiency – Ensure your fleet performs optimally, using less fuel and producing fewer emissions.
  • 🧭 Safety First – Detect issues that could compromise braking, handling, or stability.
  • 📈 Protect Your Investment – Extend the lifespan of every vehicle in your business fleet.

Common Faults in Light Commercial Vehicles

Because LCVs operate in demanding environments, we often see recurring issues such as:

  • DPF blockages due to short trips or stop-start driving
  • Turbocharger or injector faults
  • Clutch and gearbox wear
  • Electrical faults from heavy accessory loads
  • Sensor and ECU communication errors

Our expert diagnostic technicians can interpret these faults quickly and recommend effective, long-term solutions to get your vehicle back to work fast.

Why Choose Kearney Group Diagnostics?

At Kearney Group Diagnostics, we’re not your average garage — we’re diagnostic specialists. Our team uses cutting-edge technology and manufacturer-level software to ensure accuracy and reliability every time.

When you bring your vehicle to us, you’ll receive a full diagnostic report explaining any detected faults, along with honest advice and professional recommendations. No confusing jargon, no surprise costs — just transparent, expert service you can trust.
