Automotive Technical Support Services (ATSS) will hold two training events on the electrical diagnosis, in Hartford, Conn., and Columbus, Ohio. The training, titled Electrical Diagnosis: What you didn’t learn in school, will be led by instructor Mike Cleary.
This class applies to all manufacturer’s vehicles: gasoline, diesel, hybrid, and/or electric. The Connecticut event will be held July 13, and the Ohio event will be held July 19-20.
The class is about helping technicians become proficient at electrical diagnostics. Whether an apprentice technician looking to become more proficient in electrical diagnostics, or a seasoned veteran who would like a refresher and to learn new information, this course is for technicians of all experience levels. Attendees will learn the skills necessary to become more efficient and profitable when performing electrical diagnostics work, learning these skills hands-on from a working automobile technician.
