Synopsis:

This theory-based Classroom Manual and its companion Shop Manual has been newly reorganized and redesigned to keep pace with industry trends and the needs of automotive education programs across the country. Its extraordinarily complete, technician-oriented coverage is guaranteed to lead users to mastery of all of the design, construction, troubleshooting techniques, and service procedures required to enter the workplace. For starters, the Classroom Manual begins with an important introduction to safety. This is followed immediately by a review of directly relevant electricity/electronics principles, plus more opportunities to gain practice in using scanners and oscilloscopes to develop critical thinking skills, diagnose problems, and make effective repairs. Today's Technician: Automatic Transmissions and Transaxles, 3rd Edition also features an all-new introduction to continuous variable ration transmissions, up-to-the-minute coverage of drivelines for front-wheel drive (FWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, plus the latest information on today's high-tech electronic controls and automatic shifting devices. More extensive coverage of final drive components and drive chains, electrical problems, and basic electrical testing procedures - plus an all-new chapter on rebuilding transmissions - has also been added to the Shop Manual to provide users with an unparalleled learning experience. A complete ASE-style practice exam is also included here, allowing users to simulate the actual ASE Certification Exam experience as part of their test preparation.
