Car Engine Component Diagnostics Skills

Course Fee: USD 300
Overview:
This course focuses on using an oscilloscope alongside other diagnostic tools to analyze sensor
- s, actuators, and electronic control systems in modern vehicles. Participants will gain hands-on experience in waveform interpretation to enhance troubleshooting skills for ignition systems, fuel injection, idle speed control, and more.
Key Topics:
-
Electronic Systems: Fundamentals of electronic ignition, fuel injection, and idle speed control.
-
Sensors & Actuators: In-depth study of air metering devices (MAP, MAF), oxygen sensors, throttle position sensors, knock sensors, and crankshaft/camshaft position sensors.
-
ECU Diagnostics: Understanding ECU decision-making processes.
-
Legislation & Standards: Overview of Euro 3–6 emissions standards and block exemption rulings.
Practical Training:
Delegates will apply theory using their own vehicles or provided equipment, comparing oscilloscope readings with scan-tool data for real-world diagnostics.
Target Audience:
Technicians with basic electrical knowledge seeking advanced diagnostic skills, particularly those aiming to move beyond scan-tool

reliance and perform precise repairs.
Certification:
Issued by Kenvision Techniks in partnership with Beam Auto.
This course is ideal for professionals committed to mastering modern automotive diagnostics.
Course Description:
This course provides hands-on training in diagnosing common and complex car engine issues using modern diagnostic tools and techniques. Participants will learn systematic troubleshooting methods, interpret fault codes, and perform real-world diagnostics on various engine systems.
Course Objectives:
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand engine operation and key components.
- Use diagnostic tools (OBD-II scanners, multimeters, oscilloscopes).
- Interpret trouble codes (DTCs) and live data.
- Diagnose fuel, ignition, compression, and emission-related issues.
- Apply logical troubleshooting techniques to identify engine problems.
