Description

Automotive Electronics Explained is a comprehensive training course designed for technicians, diagnosticians, and advanced learners who want a deep, practical understanding of modern vehicle electronics. This course bridges foundational electronic component theory with real‑world automotive applications, including ECU power supply circuits, signal conditioning networks, logic processing, and OBD‑II–based diagnostic routines.

Students learn not only what each component does, but how it behaves under load, how it fails, and how to test it using professional diagnostic tools such as DMMs, oscilloscopes, and scan tools.

Topics Covered:

  • How computers work
  • Diode construction-operation-testing
  • Transistor construction-operation & testing
  • Capacitor construction-operation-testing
  • Voltage regulators-reference voltage operation & testing
  • Logic gates
  • OBD direct testing & indirect testing routines

Objectives:

  • Describe how electrons move through conductors, semiconductors, and insulators
  • Identify & describe the function of resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, and 5-volt regulators
  • Diagnose faults using systematic troubleshooting methods
  • Predict how component failures affect overall circuit behavior
  • Document measurements accurately and compare to expected values
