• Import Braking Systems: Focused on the most popular ABS utilized by Honda in the 1990s, this session covers microprocessor strategies, fault code flash-out, and the differences between hard, soft and false codes. The session will also look at problem-solving techniques to help reduce common brake problems.

• Automotive Brake Electrical & Electronic Seminar: The first part of this two-session course will discuss fundamentals of electrical theory, including Ohm’s Law, Kirchoff’s Law as well as series, parallel and series-parallel electrical circuits. The second session will cover electronic components, brake system sensors and deciphering wire diagrams.
