Principles, operation,
and diagnosis of automotive electrical systems including: fundamentals of
electricity, fundamentals of magnetism, charging systems, starting systems, and
use of schematics.
A hands-on class using demonstrator boards in the classroom to explore voltages, amperage, relay operation, series and parallel circuits, DVOM use, and diagnostics.
This class continues into the
shop with each student completing a worksheet doing live diagnostics, with
emphasis on starter and alternator amperage testing, voltage drop testing,
proper alternator testing, proper battery testing, and ground circuits.
Testing in the shop is done
with a VAT, DVOM, and any tool of choice.
This class can be aimed at either automotive, truck, or both applications.
