Thread For Automotive Technician With Advanced Or No Scope Diagnosis Skill by Agbabiakara: 4:20pm On Nov 20, 2019 |
Today's automotive industry has come a long way. Automobiles of today has upwards of 20 modules interconnected in a network. Diagnosing these vehicles accurately sometimes require the use of digital storage Oscilloscope(DSO), especially for catching intermittent problems. This thread is for automotive technician who is advanced scope user to one who aspires to get one to come together and share waveforms and how the problem of the waveform was resolved. Also, to share known good waveforms, share knowledge of areas one has strength in and so on. We may even go to the length of bringing a foreigner in to lecture us on difficult area we may identify as the thread grows. I have knowledge of in-cylinder waveform analysis which i intend to improve on through sharing. Let us come together to become better. |

Long overdue Autologic has been reaping the benefit of scope diagnosis way back https://www.nairaland.com/5108470/abs-wahala#77141823 |

Unfortunately ,this is a thread not for DIY or car enthusiasts but for high level tech head cos of the skill level involved ( Mathematics and strong electrical science) and very expensive equipment ,hence might not receive the much needed participation it requires cos it is complex subject , however this is a thread for the future tech that is willing to break new ground and open new frontiers |

The power of scope diagnosis is simply out of this world .With a single captured clean waveform taken within few minute ,so much rich information can be gotten with 100% accuracy of the condition of the engine .(compression , timing,valve, battery,kick starter etc ) even before the symptoms started to manifest itself ,all with just a single clean waveform without removing even a pin from the tested vehicle.

Thanks @ dicksonadams. Using a scope can make diagnosis so easy if one truly understands the language the acquired waveform is speaking. |

What makes labscope the best thing that has ever happen to automotive industry , |

autologic:The best ever,when u run a scan on a module with no code and their is fault present.Scope waveform is superd and accurate especially when I am troubleshooting "crank but no start on nissan cars their cam and crank sensor can give headache. |

empron:wow.. this is beautiful can you possibly share some shots of some of your diagnosis? |

To diy and other car enthusiasts. If you want to learn to use car oscilloscopes just spend your money on getting a very high end scan tool. Most of them come equipped with lab scopes. Tools like the Bosch kts and ADS 625 come with oscilloscopes as standard. 1 Like |

ControlModule:How many professionals in Nigeria use an oscilloscope. Besides a multimeter and a normal scan tool will suffice for 90 percent of car troubles. With an oscilloscope you are going very far. |

tensazangetsu20:I respectfully disagree with the bolded cos my labscope is one of my best investment which I cannot do without and is one of the best thing that has ever happen to automotive world . Imagine having equipment with same power of the vehicle designer and manufacturer ,it all about your perspective on how far you want to see and get to in the industry. 1 Like |

autologic:Yeah but how many luxury cars are in Nigeria? No be piece of shit corollas and Camry full ground for here. What do you wanna fix with an oscilloscope on a corolla. |
Re: Thread For Automotive Technician With Advanced Or No Scope Diagnosis Skill by autologic: 8:45pm On Nov 21, 2019 |
tensazangetsu20:Likei It depend on how far u want to go in the industry ,I deal mostly with the so called few luxury brand like benz , Audi ,VAG etc ,they challenge my knowledge and pay for my time and will hopefully take on the EV like Tesla and the likes very soon . Corolla is not my thing cos I am bore with the blandness If want to remain a corolla technician ,this thread is not for you |

Oscilloscope gives precise and accurate values of variables with respect to time. With that you can precisely know when a particular event occurs and how it affects other functions. If you really know how to use it. |
Re: Thread For Automotive Technician With Advanced Or No Scope Diagnosis Skill by tensazangetsu20(m): 9:15pm On Nov 21, 2019 |
autologic: If I may ask, what was your field before you ventured into automotive diagnosis. Or did you learn it all by yourself. |
Re: Thread For Automotive Technician With Advanced Or No Scope Diagnosis Skill by autologic: 9:27pm On Nov 21, 2019 |
tensazangetsu20:My background is Electrical/ Electronics engineering with more than a decade experience working as IT infrastructure/unix engineer in various multinational before venturing into automobile . And getting into automobile ,I can still see it still the same science and engineering analysis . CAN Communication protocol and computer network still share lot of similarities . No biggie ,it all about training , training , training and challenging the status quo 1 Like |

tensazangetsu20:Someone with solid background in electrical/electronics Engineering doesn't need to be an apprentice, because he was one a student to lecturers. That alone is enough. |
Re: Thread For Automotive Technician With Advanced Or No Scope Diagnosis Skill by autologic: 9:41pm On Nov 21, 2019 |
Billiebaba:You are welcome anytime but I will advice you work very hard on your basic electrical design knowledge and skill ,cos that is the gateway to CAN communication system knowledge . I teach my students to be analysts and designers and not mere technician and as a analysts ,the sky is your limit ,and can take on any brand . 1 Like |
