Automotive Mechanics (Service Station Helper - Beginner)
Course Description
The field
of Automotive Maintenance and Repair has undergone a major revolution
in the past two decades. Though the automobile remains a mechanical
device, its function has been augmented by a host of electronic
components that monitor and adjust the mechanical components of most of
the vehicles systems. The engine, brakes, climate control,
entertainment and navigation systems have all undergone electronic
upgrades. As a result, today’s automobile `Mechanic’ must have more
then mechanical knowledge alone, or a combination of mechanical and
basic electronic skills. Today’s automotive technician must be fully
well versed in modern automotive computerized systems and computer
logic troubleshooting. This course covers electronic systems including
ABS (braking), air bag, fuel injection and sensor theory plus analysis
and testing of related on board computer functions. Nevertheless, the
fact remains that the ability to turn a wrench remains fundamental to
the maintenance and repair of automobiles today. Our program includes
diagnosis and repair of all components including alignment, brakes,
engines, exhaust and related accessories.Duration
