Description
Students will utilize ?on board? diagnostic systems as well as
hand held equipment and laptop computers programmed with
EDT software to diagnose DTC information from tractors and
harvesting equipment. Proficiency with technical data, DVOM
operation and component location and identification will be
fundamental aspects of the course. Common theories and
operational principles learned in previous courses relating to
electrical and electronic components, their testing and circuit
diagnostics, will be revisited. Examples of these components
would be potentiometers, hall effect switches, thermistors,
variable resistance sensors and relays. Students will develop their
electrical/electronic diagnostic abilities by completing multiple
activities designed to hone their critical thinking skills. This
course is an active diagnostic lab course.
