Vehicle manufactures compete for sales in an ever-changing high tech and demanding market. They must continually change or be left behind. While some changes seem small, others drastically affect vehicle service. Dodge trucks and sport utility vehicles are no exceptions. This course will cover primarily 96 and newer Dodge trucks and SUV's. Engine service highlights, for the 3.7, 4.7 and the new 5.7 HEMI will be covered in class. The Fuel Injection and Ignition systems for these engines will be covered. This will include Chryslers new PCM, the Next Generation Controller. These trucks have received major electrical upgrades that every tech should be aware of. While this course is not a multiplexing course, some multiplexing will need to be reviewed in order to understand the huge electrical changes. Also note that the CAN BUS is also used on select Dodge trucks and will be highlighted. The 5.7 HEMI electronic throttle control will also be featured.
