Auto electrical workshop software.
Auto-electrical work is hours on the tools chasing a fault — charging, wiring, CAN-bus, ADAS. PitlaneHQ tracks that diagnostic time, captures your findings, and turns them into a clear invoice the customer understands, with trade presets offered when you set up.
- Diagnostics
- Charging & battery
- Wiring
- CAN-bus
- ADAS calibration
- Accessory fit
Hours chasing a fault don’t make it onto the invoice.
The hardest auto-electrical jobs are diagnostic — and the time disappears if it isn't captured as you work. PitlaneHQ tracks technician time against the job and records your findings, so the diagnostic effort is billed and the customer sees what they paid for. And on a car, the PitlaneInfo add-on (from $39/mo) brings technical data to the job card: wiring diagrams, electrical data, repair times, technical service bulletins and recalls. Every PitlaneInfo tier includes every subject; the tiers differ only in how many lookups they include. Subject availability depends on the matched vehicle, upstream coverage and workshop settings.
