This workshop is designed for technicians servicing driveability, emission and tune up repair on today’s vehicles using a combination of classroom and hands on education.  Modern Ignition systems of all types will be discussed.  Enhanced Scan Tool data used to diagnose P0300 Misfire DTC’s will be covered.  Primary and Secondary Ignition waveform diagnostics will be performed in the service bays using a variety of lab scope test equipment to aid in diagnosis of No Code misfires. Mode 6 diagnostics are put to the test on problem vehicles.  Techniques to help the technician become more proficient at diagnosing problems such as hard start, no start, and intermittent misfire related DTC’s using aftermarket scan tools and test equipment for quick and accurate analysis will be emphasized.  The TEC301 is an excellent preface to the TEC305.

Prerequisite: Attendance of TEC301, TEC306, or ASE Certification in A-6 (Electrical/Electronics) or A-8 (Engine Performance).

After completing this workshop, the student will be able to:

• Distinguish the operational strategies used on today’s EI systems starting with the crank sensor and ending at the spark plug.
• Diagnose misfire concerns on gasoline engines employing enhanced scan tool data.
• Define differences between mechanical, fuel related, and ignition misfires using advanced testing techniques.
• Apply Mode 6 Diagnostics to repair P0300 misfire DTC’s.
• Employ test methods for diagnosing type A and B misfires utilizing scan tools, lab scopes, current probes and ignition/gas analyzers.
• Identify faults in primary/secondary ignition waveforms.
