This course is designed to give students a better understanding of the theory, operation, diagnosis and repair procedures that are utilized in automotive electrical systems. The topics will include starting and charging systems, scan tool usage, ADAS systems shorts, ground and resistance problems, parasitic draw and restraint systems including airbags.

The basic theory of engine performance and its effect on emissions will be discussed in depth. The operation and interactions of the ignition, fuel, valve timing, throttle and modulated displacement systems and their individual effects on emissions, performance and fuel economy will be explored. Included in the study will be sensor operations, diagnosis and testing required to service and repair engine malfunctions related to the ignition, fuel and emission controls. All relevant computer controlled system operation will be discussed in this course with emphasis given to Honda preferred diagnostic procedures. In addition, students will be reintroduced to scan tool diagnostics as well as advanced diagnostic procedures utilized by Honda.

Seven Internship credit hours total must be earned in order to graduate.

The Honda Internship course is designed to be a supplement to the Honda PACT program learning experience. Students will be required to complete a total of 170 hours of in dealership work experience during the semester.The internship experience is a paid internship that must take place at a Honda or Acura dealership. Students will be responsible for completing a journal that will document their hours worked, assigned workload, and overall dealership experience. This course will be designated as a Pass/Fail course. Periodic internship visits will be performed by the assigned instructor to monitor student progress.
