Motor Age & TST "New Battery/Starting/Charging System Testing Techniques"
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 вер 2016
- G. Jerry Truglia (TST/ATTS) and Pete Meier (Motor Age) will show you a variety of methods for battery and charging system testing as well as educate you on the common causes of premature battery and alternator failures. Starting with a simple DVOM test and moving up to capacitance testing and DSO testing, you will walk away with the actual tests you can perform in your shop.
This webinar was recorded live, on location with TST, and is brought to you by the “Commitment to Training” sponsors - Авто та транспорт
I love watching your videos you guys are great !! And i mean the whole gang camera man the whole nine yards keep em rolling !! I always learn something !!! You guys teach GREAT !!
Always happy to see these videos . Great work once again
thanks
Excellent video. All things change, including us, mechanic's (opp's) technicians. Learning is mandatory. It's found here. Thank you.
Dave thanks for the comment and watching
Excellent video! Opened my eyes to things I had no idea about. It never occurred to me to use an Amp clamp with my meter either. Great to have options!
Great video!
Great Video Gentlemen.. Thanks.
great job!! Keep up with the good work thanks for all the information.
Daniel thanks for your comment and watching
Incredibly informative video, thank you very much, I will subscribe to your channel. That being said, when Pierre unconnected the VCI from the 2015 BMW, the Verus was still communicating with the BMW. My Snap-On rep told me to always quit the application and stop communication between the car and Snap-On scanner before un-pluging the VCI form the car. Again, thank you for your work.
Yes you are correct...we were not on the same page...We should have exit the program first then shut the ignition off and disconnect the VCI. Thanks for watching
Good stuff thank you
thanks...Once again please subscribe to our tstseminars channel... :)
grate video :)
thank you...Thanks for your comment … If you have not already Subscribed to our tstseminars UA-cam channel please do so. Interested in more training? Go to www.tstseminars.org and www.attstraining.com
I have seen a few GM cars and a few Opel car with a P0300 code just after the car had a new battery one car came to me with new coils new injectors and the workshop was thinking of removing the head to check the valves because they could not clear the P0300 code ? the fix was to do a crankshaft variation relearn ? this car only had code P0300 and I check it with Tech 2 so some cars need to have crankshaft variation relearn when you fit a new battery
that's very good info...thanks for sharing...it helps many...thanks for coming and watching
Great video guys! I havent finished watching this video so I may have more questions later.
Where can I get a copy of that battery book that G was showing us?
John that is the AutoData book check AESwave.com or Google search it...thanks for watching
Thanks for this very informative video. How would you check for diode in a battery?
By checking for AC Voltage at the battery with a Voltmeter or Battery tester from Associated, Midtronics or Snap On. Thanks for watching...If you have not already subscribed to our tstseminars UA-cam channel please do so :)
how does both high and low resistance both create heat?i take it low resistance is more current flow which causes more heat but how does low resistance also create heat?
Great information! The only down side is the poor quality of the video, all blurry images, except for some in the beginning.
sorry about that we are getting better equipment ...so stay tuned
Can we get the .pdf file for this seminar??
Robert just email me at gt@tstseminars.org
What could be the problem with a unit its alternator is charging but the battery light in the dashboard doesn't go out?
A lot of cars / trucks have a charging module and detect both charging, and AC ripple. You may be charging correctly, but with bad diodes, the module will detect high AC ripple compared to what is considered normal for the voltage / current output. use a scope and check for AC Ripple at the alternator. A lot of times you can see it in the headlights or cluster light. They will be phasing (like twinkling). A lot of times the customer complaint is the battery is dead in the morning, and the vehicle can't keep a charge or you will find the battery bloated (from AC voltage being introduced). The battery light will be on, but charging and driving some mechanics bonkers.
Also, How did you hook the wires on the battery, with the amp probe?
Sorry but what part of the video are you referring to? Can you supply the time line please so we can answer your question? Thanks for watching
Around 1:09:00, you have 2 multimeter hooked up on the battery. One with the leads, one with the Amp probe.
OK on one meter we are in series with the amp meter to the battery and the post and cable while the other meter has the amp clamp on the jumper wire that the amp meter is using because of the size of the cable. The amp clamp is connected to the voltage jack so we can measure the voltage / current conversion. Remember it's a voltage to amp conversation...every 100 millvolts equals one amp...sometimes its difficult for techs to read it correctly on a meter. Just count all digits...every 3 digits equals a amp...example 0.43 is 430 millvolts that is 4 amps 300 milliamps...hope that helps...thanks for watching ....please don't for get to subscribe to our tstseminars UA-cam channel
Thank you very much. I will keep watching these videos
thank you Kent... .Please don't forget to subscribe to our tstseminars UA-cam channel.
Everything is a short.. Or some kind of a feedback lol..
:)
Fah'get abowt it
