Release 1 

New unit of competency.

Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes required to analyse and evaluate electrical and electronic faults in the embedded network electronic over hydraulic systems of vehicles or machinery in order to initiate action to sustain, vary or enhance performance. It involves identifying, evaluating, selecting, justifying and documenting the most appropriate rectification method or variation to the rectification method. The unit includes the analysis of multi-system and intermittent faults which may be caused by operating in adverse conditions.

The unit applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry on network electronic over hydraulic systems in vehicles or machinery, which may be wheeled or track type machinery.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

3.5 Valid conclusions are drawn from available evidence and documented according to workplace requirements

4. Make recommendations

4.1 Options for responding to the objective are determined from further research of technical support information

4.2 Rectification method is selected from an analysis of the options, operating conditions, regulatory requirements, Australian Design Rules, and financial implications

4.3 Report is prepared specifying analysis and evaluation process, and detailing and justifying rectification method or variation to the rectification method

5. Complete work processes

5.1 Final inspection is made to ensure work is to workplace expectations

5.2 Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected

5.3 Tools and equipment are checked and stored, and any faulty electrical equipment is identified, tagged and isolated according to workplace procedures

5.4 Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures
