| Workshop Day 1: | |
|
Essential Troubleshooting
Skills H-111 Essential troubleshooting skills using the Starter Kit, H-111. Material covers how circuits work, how to test circuits, how circuits fail and how to troubleshoot circuits. Teachers then practice troubleshooting up to 32 individual electrical problems and learn to insert problems in the Troubleshooting Trainers, H-PCB01 and H-PCB02. |
| Workshop Day 2: | |
|
Troubleshooting
DC Motor Circuits H-113 More troubleshooting skill is developed troubleshooting brushless DC Motor Circuits using the Troubleshooting Trainer, H-PCB03 from H-113. Teachers practice troubleshooting DC Motor circuit electrical problems and learn to insert problems in the Troubleshooting Trainer, H-PCB03. Includes introduction to the various types of ohmmeters, their parameters, capabilities & limitations testing solid-state components and an introduction to key-off battery drain problems relating to DC motor circuit cooling fans. Later in Day 2 we will begin troubleshooting relays (Day 3 material) to make room in Day 3 to cover the new Troubleshooting Trainer H-PCB06, covering Wire Harness Troubleshooting. |
| Workshop Day 3: | |
|
Troubleshooting
Relay Circuits, H-115 Troubleshooting Relay Circuits using Troubleshooting Trainer H-PCB05 from H-115. Teachers troubleshoot live relay circuit problems including hard to find circuit failures, how relays cause key-off drain problems, how relays are controlled by shorts-to-voltage, etc and learn to insert problems in the Troubleshooting Trainer, H-PCB05. Wire Harness Troubleshooting, H-116 A brief overview assembling and troubleshooting The Wire Harness Troubleshooting Trainer H-PCB06 from H-116. Teachers assemble a Mini-Electrical-System ("M.E.S." for short) combining all troubleshooting trainers together through the Wire Harness Troubleshooting Trainer and study unique electrical circuit problems relating to troubleshooting an electrical system. |
| Workshop Day 4: | |
|
-Troubleshooting
Batteries, unusual Battery Failures; How to troubleshoot a battery
failure on the vehicle using a DMM and Current Clamp; -Cranking circuits & practical cranking circuit troubleshooting on the vehicle Systematic troubleshooting procedures are explained for battery troubleshooting and cranking circuit troubleshooting, testing voltage drops, as well as, troubleshooting these circuits with hands-on practice using a DMM and DC Current Clamp. |
| Workshop Day 5: | |
|
-Troubleshooting
charging systems; -Teaching FIRST THINGS FIRST; -Troubleshooting Key-Off Battery Drain Problems; -Troubleshooting multiple battery systems; Systematic troubleshooting procedures of generators (alternators) and charging systems including computer controlled generator systems. How to use FIRST THINGS FIRST in the classroom to teach students how to test a vehicle's electrical system in 5-8 minutes and find electrical problems in the vehicle's primary electrical system. This includes a review of the FIRST THINGS FIRST School Presentation Package. A presentation and demonstration of key-off drain problems is next with live key-off drain measurements using the Starter Kit circuit. Multiple battery systems are covered with principles of operation and troubleshooting concepts. The final day concludes with a time for open discussion and critique. |

IN FIVE DAYS SO TEACHERS DEVELOP TROUBLESHOOTING SKILLS TO SUCCESSFULLY
TEACH ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTING TO THEIR STUDENTS. |
| Call 972-276-9642 to register by phone or fax a registration form which also shows cost to attend. If an answering machine records your call, leave a message and we will return your call as soon as possible. We suggest you leave your business and home phone number so we can contact you in the evening if our staff is on the road. Payment of the tuition in advance is required. As soon as tuition payment is received, or a copy of school purchase order, your seat is confirmed in your name and a confirmation letter is sent out with final instructions. There are two things to do after reserving a workshop seat. |
|
(1) Airline Reservation: Book a flight ASAP after having confirmation
to qualify for a reduced airfare. Include a Saturday night stay
over (the Sat. night before) which can result in significant
savings on some airfares. Students fly in to DFW Airport (Dallas-Fort
Worth and take a SuperShuttle Van to the hotel (about $30.00
one way). If arriving at Love Field a SuperShuttle Van is also
available. When you check in at the hotel, your training manual
will be waiting for you at the front desk with a Welcome Letter
covering last minute details about the class schedule and meeting
room number. ASK FOR THEM! All workshop classes are held in the
same hotel where you stay. SuperShuttle Vans will return you
to the airport (about $30.00) for your return flight home.) |
|
(2) Hotel Reservation: Lunch each workshop day at local area restaurants is included in the workshop tuition. Students are responsible for their own evening meal. The hotel offers a free shuttle to local area restaurants or you can order in from local restaurants and use your own kitchen in your hotel suite. |
