Ogden business offers new diagnostic service for trucks

Ogden Business News Rick Tractor Services
Rick's Tractor Services, located at 407 S. Market in Ogden, now offers vehicle diagnosis services for pickup trucks and semis.

"We have purchased the latest computer diagnosis program. We now have the ability to read the vehicle ECM and troubleshoot," says owner Rick Buckley, who started the business in 2000, in a recent announcement on Facebook. "We can also change parameters, such as speed, cruise control settings, and more."

ECMs, or electronic control modules, are miniature computers with dozens of sensors units installed in late model cars and trucks that control and report on essential engine functions such as electrical systems, emissions, ignition timing and fuel economy.

The new service is a welcomed addition to the business which also repairs brakes, offers oil change and lube services and battery replacement.

Open 8am to 4:30pm, Tuesday through Saturday, call 217-202-0715 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
