Vehicle Electrics 
Module 2
Vehicle electrical systems
and diagnostic principles
This is a two day higher level course. It is aimed at vehicle technicians working in the motor industry and those with relevant technical background who would like to further develop their knowledge and skills and the course builds upon the subjects covered in Vehicle electrics module 1.
The course covers the following main subjects:
- Review of electrical principles
- Introduction to Oscilloscopes
- Sensors and actuators testing and diagnosis
- Semi conductors and solid state components
- Electronic system functions and controls
- Technical overview of multi function
control modules
- Technical overview of selective body
electrical systems and components
Pre requisites
Those attending this course should have either successfully completed Vehicle Electrics Module 1 with AK Training or alternatively have a thorough understanding of electrical principles and circuit testing techniques, be fully competent using a digital multi meter and be able to read wiring diagrams. At the start of the course, there will be a test to review this basic knowledge. PC skills would also be useful.
The course show cases the PC based oscilloscope from Pico Technology and the Fluke 123 hand held scope meter.

Delegates will use the oscilloscopes in conjunction with wiring diagrams and the Autodata CD3 workshop information system to test sensors and actuators.
The course also covers semi conductive materials and solid state components in motor vehicle electronic systems. It explains system functions and controls including voltage divider circuits and circuit monitoring features highlighting examples on the vehicle.
There will be a technical overview of the features and functions of multi function control modules. The course show cases the Saab DICE and TWICE modules and also covers examples of multi function control modules from other vehicle brands.
Assessment
Course assessment comprises of multiple choice questionnaires and a practical task. To successfully complete the course, delegates must achieve 80% in each assessment as well as an overall test result of 80% at the end of the course. After successfully completing the course, delegates will receive a Quality Assured Award certificate from the Institute of the Motor Industry.
