Whether it be training on new equipment or scan tools, staying up-to-date with industry technology, professional development or simply the desire to learn something new―the learning never stops. That’s why AVI OnDemand helps thousands of technicians, trainers and shop owners achieve their diagnostic training goals. In the past few months, enrollment has steadily increased, allowing us to add new training courses to our digital library. Check out the list below for some of the latest additions to AVI OnDemand.
Hybrid Safety for First Responders
High voltage is not something to take lightly; understanding how to properly work with the high voltage is a MUST as a first responder. Hybrid vehicles are not going away, more and more will be on the road in the future, and that means more and more chances for accidents to happen.
AVI wants you to learn about hybrid vehicle safety and how to deal with one at the scene of an accident from the best there is in the business, Instructor Craig Van Batenburg. Craig, nationally known for his expertise in the field of hybrids, will show you what to look for, how to tell which system is which, what models to look for and how to avoid the hazards of dealing with a hybrid car in an accident situation.
Functional Scanner Testing
Most techs only use 10-15 percent of what scan tools are capable of. In this training program Instructor Jim Wilson show you how to go deeper in your tool for more thorough and insightful diagnostics. With this video you will learn how how to get more from your scan tool.
This course covers specialized testing using the data stream and graphs from six input sensors: RPM, CTS, ITS, MAP, MAF and TPS. Jim shows you how to use the tool to figure total fuel trim and test hard start and no-start issues. He also covers misfire testing, the “Special Tests” function and time saving setups.
Making the Most of Your Solarity Scope
You paid good money for your Genisys labscope, wouldn’t you like to get the most out of your investment? Jim Wilson knows his diagnostic equipment and in this program he will show you all the amazing things this tool can do.
He shows you how to find and use the which wire hookups and provides hands-on navigation, quick set-up techniques for testing sensors and ignition. Jim covers sensor plug configuration, using the amp probe with your Genisys scope and testing schematics with known good results and live data.
OTC TPMS
OTC’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System course covers the essential training you need to service TPMS installed tires.
Jim Wilson guides you through the fundamentals of the OTC TPR tool and a review of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System, as well as detailed techniques on how to properly service TPMS.
Since most TPMS utilize a valve stem sensor and many include run-flat tires, special attention is given to the step-by-step procedures for handling these assemblies.
TPMS Tips & Tricks
Since 2007, tire pressure monitoring (TPMS) systems are required on all vehicles in the US. Dave Scaler from MEA brings you completely up to date on these systems. In this class he gives you the latest information on the changes that have been made, new techniques and answers tough questions that techs have with these systems.
He explains why you should NEVER use chrome or metal custom valve caps, what happens if you do and provides tips on valve core extraction. Dave covers tire pressures and gives tips on how to figure cold and hot inflation pressures. He explains the discrepancies between tire gauges and dash display and how to avoid comebacks.
Mastering Hybrid HVAC Systems
In this program, Instructor Dave Hobbs teaches you hands-on fundamentals to servicing Hybrid A/C systems. Advance your diagnostic strategies by understanding these complex systems through live on car demonstrations. Dave covers essential hybrid A/C technical tips and tricks on how to keep not only your customers cool but the hybrid battery from overheating.
Top 10 OBDII Codes
In this program, Dave Scaler will not only teach you how to fix OBD II DTC’s, he’ll teach you methods to fix them fast! Whether it’s an import or domestic vehicle, this program contains universal techniques you can apply to any make or brand—without using a manual or factory flow chart! Advance your diagnostic strategies when tackling the most common OBD II codes through: on car hands-on explanations, various diagnostics methods and tests, vehicle case studies, monitor tips and tricks, catalyst efficiency codes, and much more!
