Diesel Driveability for Gas Guys! 2/15/20, 1:30 - 4:30 p.m. Class #223, DeVos Gallery Overlook G This course is designed for the driveability technician who hasn't had much experience with diesels. Many “gas guys” have fixed computer- ized engine controls on gas cars and trucks for a long time (and are good at it) without the need to bother with diesels. Diesel guys, on the other hand, are those who fix diesel vehicles all the time. The problem is the light-duty truck mar- ket is saturated with computerized diesels, and they no longer can be side-stepped without a decrease in business. This course is designed to help techs service diesels with confidence. With that being said, it is not a new tech class. It is de- signed for experienced techs who don't work on diesels. This course will cover operation, testing, and common problems on Ford Powerstrokes, GM Duramax, Dodge Cummins, and Sprinter systems. Presented By: ATEC Training Speaker: Dave Scaler Asian Import Driveability Solutions 2/15/20, 1:30 - 4:30 p.m. Class #227, DeVos Grand Gallery C These popular vehicles bring unique system controls and diagnostics to the table. However, misfires, codes, and other symptoms must be diagnosed. We will explore a variety of these systems and apply tried-and-true diagnostic techniques to solving real-world problems using a variety of case studies. The goal of this class is to prepare the aftermarket technician to diagnose a variety of faults on Asian import vehicles. This will improve workflow and accuracy. During the class, we will demonstrate diagnostic procedures using basic tools that will enable the technician to diagnose these faults quickly and accurately.

This class is designed to enhance the profes- sional level technician’s knowledge of modern ignition system diagnostics. P0300 misfire DTC diagnostic strategies are covered, using modern scan tools and ignition system test equipment. This class reviews digital storage oscilloscope (DSOs) patterns captured using current probes, inductive wands, and voltage tests leads to validate modern ignition system components. This ranges from crankshaft and camshaft position sensors to today’s COP (Coil on Plug) assemblies. Misfire information obtained from the scan tool is explained and reviewed through case studies. PCM (Powertrain Control Module) operational strategies are defined pertaining to OBD II Misfire Monitoring standards. Presented By: DR1V Speaker: Dave Cerveny Passive entry and start systems using a “smart key” have been available on select vehicles for many years now. These systems are typically very reliable; however, technicians will need to under- stand how they work to diagnose them when they fail and a vehicle will not start. Technicians will learn to differentiate between a smart key system fault and a module-controlled starter fault. Tech- nicians will learn the core components involved with all push button start systems, as well as the OE specific components and their operation on four different vehicles.
