Overview
The 12/24 volt systems of transit buses have evolved over the last few years. Effectively troubleshooting electrical systems is a continuously evolving, essential skill for bus maintenance technicians. Lack of strong basic diagnostic skills can lead to wrong diagnosis which leads to replacing good parts or the same parts repeatedly. Technicians who understand effective electrical troubleshooting techniques can save their organization both manpower and financial resources by identifying faulty components correctly the first time and preventing on-the-road failures.
Attendees will learn
- Performing circuit testing to identify open circuit
- Performing a voltage drop test to identify high resistance conditions
- Identifying faulty ground conditions
