Description
ARCHIVED LIVESTREAM – On modern vehicles, 25% of the overall value comes from electronics content. Complexities of electrical system designs, intermittent conditions and a lack of published service information can lower a technician’s productivity — but it doesn’t have to be this way. Delphi’s history of electronic innovation dates back to the first electric starter motor and fast forwards to high tech advanced systems such as telematics and radar obstacle detection. In this one-hour training program, veteran Delphi instructor Dave Hobbs will provide techs with:
- Advanced meter functions such as 3½ digit mode, Min/Max, Freq and Duty Cycle
- Review of foundational topics and introduction to advanced electronic concepts
- Current draw testing – large (motors) and small
- Performing voltage drops like a pro
- Ohms law and resistance calculations for real-world applications
- Understanding AC circuits, impedance and wattage
- Intermediate and advanced lab scope tips that don’t require an engineering degree
- Finding intermittent ground and connection problems
- Diagnosing EMI / RFI issues using case studies that transform theoretical into practical
