Diagnosis

Course Details

With the evolution and implementation of new technologies in the automotive industry, how to diagnose an impact on the vehicle becomes a complicated technical process. Therefore diagnosis technicians must be continuously learning and systems used and useful tools that should be used for proper repair.

In this course, it will seek to guide the technical diagnosis on logical reasoning techniques to be performed to obtain a quick and effective remedy. Also, different types of diagnostic equipment, tools and techniques for tracking faults facilitate final repair will be described.

The main objectives of the course are:

• Understand and analyze the importance of customer communication.
• Saber gather information for a correct diagnosis.
• Adjust the sequence of jobs available means to optimize resources.
• Differentiate diagnosis methods depending on the nature of the issue.
• Recognize different equipment and tools available on the market and use.
• Interpretation of measurement units.
• Knowing the importance of a logical sequence of work and logical sequence of diagnosis.
