The second of two courses, this course is a comprehensive overview of automotive computerized engine controls and vehicle emission systems. Students will learn to utilize proper diagnostic procedures and determine appropriate corrective procedures to repair, replace, or install components that cause poor engine performance. Students will study emission controls, their purpose on OBDII engines and their effect on engine performance when they are not operating properly.
