Body Electrical Systems This course will cover body electrical systems including washers, wipers, horns, obstacle avoidance and cruise control, mobile multimedia, seats, mirrors, roofs, central locking, security systems, starting control, and safety systems.
Electrical and Electronic Principles When a current flows in a circuit, it can produce only three effects – heat, magnetic and chemical. The heating effect is the basis of electrical components such as lights and heater plugs. The magnetic effect is the basis of relays and motors and generators.
Engine Electrical Systems A good supply of electric power is necessary for modern vehicles. Many components, that were once mechanically operated, are now driven by small electric motors and controlled by microprocessors.
Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Fresh air helps to keep the driver of a vehicle alert. Most cars now allow a wide range of settings for ventilation.
Lighting and Indicators Vehicle lighting systems are very important, particularly where road safety is concerned. If headlights were suddenly to fail at night and at high speed, the result could be serious.
Monitoring and Instrumentation This course will cover monitoring and instrumentation including sensors, gauges, instrument displays, vehicle conditioning monitoring, digital instrumentation systems, global positioning systems, and drowsiness detection.
Multiplexing and Controller Area Networks The number of vehicle components which are networked has considerably increased the requirements for the vehicle control systems to communicate with one another. The CAN (Controller Area Network), developed by Bosch, is today’s communication standard in modern cars.
HV60 Trailer Pin 2 Authorisation Course Overview: This course is designed for Level 3 heavy vehicle technicians who require the necessary skills and authorisation to obtain the PIN 2 for advanced Mode Trailer diagnostics.
Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle Introduction Course Overview: This course is designed for vehicle technicians and garage owners who are interested in this new technology or are thinking of getting involved in the service and repair of these vehicles. This course is assessed via a Bosch multiple choice assessment.
Wheel and Tyre Technology Together with the tyre, a road wheel must support the weight of a vehicle and be strong enough to withstand forces when driving.
Braking System Technology The main purpose of the braking system is simple – it is to slow down or stop a vehicle. Correct maintenance of the braking system is essential to driver safety.
The Global Motor Industry - Its Evolution and Future 1-day course overview A high impact thought provoking course designed to provide a highly practical and comprehensive insight into the structure and future of the motor industry.
