Course: Automotive Mechanic/Technician 2
Career Academies and Programs of Study: Transportation
This course is designed to teach the principles of automotive suspension/steering systems and 4-wheel suspension alignment. It builds on the concepts of geometry, gear reduction, hydraulics laws, and characteristics of liquids and how they apply to the operation and diagnosis of power steering and suspension systems. Steering column operation and diagnosis including supplemental restraint system service are included. Students learn strategy-based diagnostic routines to help interpret and verify customer concerns and proper operation and to perform tests and inspections to determine the causes and make corrections related to suspension/steering/ wheel systems and alignment. Through the inspection, testing, or measurement of component processes, students will apply this knowledge to determine needed repairs and correctly repair a vehicle.
