What Is TEXA Marine Diagnostics?
TEXA Marine is an advanced diagnostic system used by professional marine technicians to communicate directly with your boat’s engine control unit (ECU).
This allows us to:
- Read fault codes
- Monitor live engine data
- Identify performance issues
- Detect hidden or intermittent problems
Unlike traditional troubleshooting methods, TEXA diagnostics provide precise, data-driven insights into what’s actually happening inside your engine.

We provide full diagnostic services for both outboard and inboard engines across all major brands.
Outboard Diagnostics:
- Starting issues

Inboard Diagnostics:

- Fuel delivery problems

If your engine is running rough, stalling, or not performing as expected, diagnostics are the first and most important step.
