Diagnostics and electrics on the AP-7, Figueres

The Figueres stretch packs exits 5 and 6, the N-II link into town and the industrial estate, plus the start of the express road towards Roses and the Costa Brava, into a short but busy section. Local traffic mixes with international transit, and a reduced-speed curve works brakes and suspension hard.

Diagnostics and electrics

We carry multi-brand diagnostic equipment to read and clear codes on both tractor and trailer. We resolve the faults that force limp mode: AdBlue system and NOx sensor, air mass meter, camshaft sensor, injection and boost pressure. We also repair lighting, marker lamps, earths and trailer connectors.

Mobile diagnostics is not plugging in a scanner: it is interpreting what the ECU says in context. The same P-code can be a filthy sensor or a genuine mechanical fault behind it; telling them apart at the roadside prevents blind parts-swapping, which is how absurd invoices are born.

We work with heavy-vehicle-specific tooling (not passenger-car generics) able to enter engine, electronic brake, automated gearbox and body modules, backed by a stabilised battery supply so no session ever leaves an ECU half-written.

What never to do

  • Do not clear the fault codes before we get there
  • Do not top up AdBlue from unsealed containers
  • Do not bridge fuses with wire
  • Limited-power mode. The truck caps speed with no obvious cause: a fault is logged even if you feel nothing.

How it works

A complete read across all ECUs, not just the engine: many crossed faults explain themselves in the brake or gearbox module. We separate historic from active entries, cross-check live parameters (pressures, temperatures, commands) as symptoms occur, and deliver a plain verdict: what fails, what we can fix right now, what needs a workshop.

  1. 1
    Full-system read

    Every ECU on the truck, not only the engine block.

  2. 2
    Historic vs active

    What already healed versus what is failing now.

  3. 3
    Live parameters

    Pressures and commands while the symptom happens.

  4. 4
    Plain verdict

    Fix-now-at-the-shoulder items versus workshop-only ones.

Mode

Roadside diagnostics. Complete read + verdict + post-repair clearing.

Ask for a fault scan at every preventive service even with no lights showing: historic codes tell you what will break next, before it chooses the worst possible kilometre.

Questions about this stretch

Most often it's the hard shoulder between exits 5 and 6, the N-II junction or inside the estate itself. If you can roll to a safe lay-by, say so on the call: that always beats the shoulder.
Yes, Figueres coverage includes the start of that road. Send us the location and on the call we confirm whether we take it or coordinate closer assistance.
On short climbs and stop-start queues we regularly see overheating and brake wear from constant use. We check the whole circuit on site before you continue.
