Vehicle Electrical Fault finding course

Even if you only have a general interest in being able to use a
Digital multimetre to measure electricity, this course will suit
You.
You do not need any previous knowledge of electricity.
Aim of course: To give a working knowledge of what Voltage, Current and
Resistance are and how they relate to each other.(ohms law)
Example; a component (Injector) may very well check out good when
tested with an ohmmeter as per manufacturer's specification, yet it may
not work when it is connected to the vehicle harness (bunch of wires).
You must understand why this is.

The following will be covered in this course;

Alternator Voltage/Current flow explained ( AC)

Battery Voltage/Current flow explained. (DC)

Resistance and Dynamic resistance explained.

Wave forms also used to explain how voltage and current behave when
a component is activated.

How the electricity in the Battery/Alternator gets to the
lights, solenoid coils(injectors), motors and computers.

How electricity makes these components work and then returns to the
Battery/Alternator and what affects that electricity on its journey
that causes problems.
Short circuits, Short to power, Short to ground. Open circuits and
excessive resistance.

How to choose Digital Multimetre.

Digital Multimetre functions.

What an Amp Probe is and does and why you must have one.

Why an analogue multimetre is still needed.

Demonstration of finding unwanted voltage drops, open circuit
voltage, source voltage and voltage drop on a circuit board.

How the vehicles computer PCM/ECM (Power train Control Module)/(Engine
Control Module) interprets short circuit faults, out of range
faults, and implausibility.

How to test computer Power and ground wires.

Induction, Capacitance, Transistors (Drivers),Diodes, Duty Cycle and
Pulse width explained. Analogue and Digital signals explained.

Why testing only resistance is not always a good idea.

Why using a test lamp to check computer circuits may not be a good idea.

The course will concentrate on thoroughly understanding and finding
voltage drop in connections, connectors components and wiring with a
digital multimetre.

The course will use power point presentations, animation and DVD's to
explain all of the above.
You will be given web addresses where you will find excellent auto
electrical course material for further study.


Course fee is €260. ***Please pay in cash only***
Buying a pig in a poke?
To help you make up your mind, you can leave after 2 hours if you find
the course is not of benefit to you, at no cost.

If having done the course you need further help with the material
covered on the course, you can avail of one to one tuition at normal
grind rates of €35.00 per hour.
A range of automotive books will be on display on the day of the course,
some of which I would highly recommend.
I also have over 30 automotive DVD's that you may preview by
arrangement. I will be able to recommend the better ones, should you
wish to make a purchase.
You may also receive a demonstration of a Bosch Automotive Scanner/Oscilloscope.

Course duration is one day; 7am till 3pm.
Course dates:every week.
Course location: Anner Hotel, Thurles Co. Tipperary
Course presented by: Edward Sheehy
Qualification: Diploma in Vehicle maintenance and repair Auto
electrical from IMI.(institute of the motoring industry)
