14 courses with the subject AUTO, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
This course is designed for non-degree students. The course offers students instruction in the basics of automotive systems operation, troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and repair, along with the terminology, proper use of tools, and procedures required to perform these tasks.
This course is designed to introduce the student to fundamentals, theory, and applications, as well as diagnosis and repair procedures for all manual shift transmission and drive train components.
This course is designed to introduce the student to the fundamentals, components, and operation of an internal combustion engine. Both gasoline and diesel engines will be explored, and comparisons and differences between the operation of the two will be studied. High-speed and low-speed compression ignition and spark ignition engines will be discussed and demonstrated.
This course is designed to introduce students to all phases of automotive transmission and fluid drive rebuilding to prepare them with the necessary skills for entry into the automotive field. The student is given an opportunity to work on different types of transmissions, and the course curriculum is developed around this concept.
This course will introduce students to automotive braking systems, from conventional to antilock and traction control. Emphasis will be placed on operational theory, trouble diagnosis, and safe repair. The systems covered will be primarily those used by American automobile manufacturers.
This course is designed to introduce the student to the principles of refrigeration, automotive air conditioning, and heating systems, as well as troubleshooting and repair of these systems.
This course is designed to introduce the student to the fundamentals of AC-DC charging systems and cranking motors, including operation, testing, servicing, and troubleshooting.
This course is a continuation of AUTO 1765 Automotive Electrical Systems. Students will use the principles learned in the first course to practice diagnosing various real-world circuit faults on real vehicles using digital multi-meters, battery load testers, and other pieces of electrical test equipment. The student will also be introduced to more complex circuits not covered in AUTO 1765, such as lighting circuits and body electrical accessories.
This course is designed to study the theory, service, and repair of electronic control systems used in today’s automobiles. The course will cover the principles of the electronic components and operation of systems used in the automobile industry. The students will be introduced to scan tools and digital oscilloscopes and their use in electronic control systems.
This course will introduce students to a variety of different types of engine diagnosis and electrical testing using lab scopes, scan tools, multi-meter, and charging system testers. Mechanical performance systems will be studied, and intake and exhaust systems will be diagnosed. Computer input, output, and communication will be covered with lectures and hands-on experience. On-Board Diagnostics I and On-Board Diagnostics II (OBD) with freeze frame, monitoring, and adaptive fuel control are also introduced and covered in depth according to the student’s ability/desire. A good foundation in electronics is needed for the best success in this course.
This course is a continuation of Engine Performance I and is designed for students who have a foundation of such knowledge to build on. Areas of study are systems related to engine performance, fuel diagnosis and service, electronic fuel injection, ignition (DI and EI), and emission.
This course will cover advanced brakes (ABS), regenerative braking, and vehicle suspension systems. In the brakes section, the information covered will reinforce material studied in AUTO 1740 Braking Systems. Emphasis will be placed on anti-lock braking systems and related traction control systems, as well as topics such as hybrid regenerative braking. In the suspension section, the students will be introduced to the wide variety of suspension systems available in modern automobiles. Emphasis will be placed on suspension designs, geometry, problem diagnosis, and repair.
This course will introduce students to basic alignment theory and practice. Emphasis will be placed on the various alignment angles and their effects on tire wear and vehicle stability. Several types of alignment techniques will be discussed, with the primary focus being on the use of computer alignment equipment to achieve consistent, accurate results. The course will also cover the theory, diagnosis, and repair of modern steering systems such as power rack and pinion steering and recirculating ball steering.
This course is a continuation of Engine Performance II and is designed for students who have a foundation of such knowledge to build on. The areas of study are systems related to engine performance, emission control systems, OBDII, digital oscilloscopes, and scan tools, as well as the proper use thereof. Alternative powertrain management systems, such as light-duty diesel, gas-electric hybrids, and compressed natural gas systems, will also be covered.
