SCAN TOOL ANALYSIS 101: Gaining Diagnostic Direction From The Driver's Seat
Date & Time
Saturday, October 15, 2022, 3:30 PM - 5:30 PM
Brandon Steckler
Description

Course objective is to first, take the novice drivability-tech and offer insight as to how fuel injection strategy functions. After thorough discussion of what critical inputs are necessary and how they contribute to the decision of the proper fuel injector pulse-width, interactive class exercises will begin.

Using his own vehicle with a MAF fueling strategy, Brandon conducted a series of experiments to create a low-power drivability fault. The faults include:
Exhaust restriction 
Air Filter restriction
Fuel restriction
Un-metered air before throttle plate
Un-metered air after throttle (vacuum)

The scan data will be presented in graphed format, for “action/reaction” comparison, as well as in a format featured only by ATS EScanELITE. The goal of the class is to have attendees analyze the data and decipher which fault is responsible for the data being viewed at that time. Attendees will leave with an understanding of fuel injection strategy, fuel feedback control and the ability to use generic scan tool data to make preliminary decisions about diagnostic-direction, right from the driver's seat.
