The most difficult bus electrical problems will be sought or induced for individual fault isolation and troubleshooting. Individuals will be introduced to the analytical troubleshooting concept of Root Cause Analysis. Attendees will be able to troubleshoot and fault isolate bus electrical problems in complex circuits. Attendees will also be able to reinstall and modify the PLC program file on vehicle with laptop computer. Emphasis is placed on the troubleshooting and fault isolation of the 30 The final training module in the series is designed to prepare the mechanic to cope with the evolving complexity of bus technology and to facilitate future learning as bus systems continue to evolve.
Emphasis is on the operation, analysis, and troubleshooting of electronic circuits.
Training is augmented through classroom exercises and focuses most attention on the PLC equipped bus problems. Course will include advanced logic controller troubleshooting and programming techniques. Attendees will understand the basic principles of electronics as they apply to the Advanced Technology Bus. This one-week course of instruction will include sufficient information and assistance needed to customize, implement, monitor, and evaluate the technician training program among each agency's maintenance workforce. Provide diagrams and instructions for building required bus electrical system training aids and a comprehensive set of detailed lesson plans to help trainers to teach the specific bus model schematics brought to the session by each agency's team of trainers.
