Application
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to install and test ancillary electronic systems and components in vehicles or machinery. It involves preparing for the task, installing and testing the operation of the systems and components, and completing workplace processes and documentation. These electronic systems and components may require programming following installation to enable them to communicate with the vehicle or machinery controller area network data bus (CAN-bus or LIN-bus) topography.
It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. Ancillary electronic systems and components include those being installed in agricultural machinery, heavy commercial vehicles, light vehicles, marine vessels, mobile plant machinery, motorcycles or outdoor power equipment.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Assessment Conditions
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must be by direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the ancillary electronic systems and components that they have installed in vehicles or machinery, e.g. work orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- automotive service and repair workplace or simulated workplace
- workplace instructions
- vehicle and machinery wiring specifications relevant to systems and components being installed
- manufacturer ancillary electronic system specifications
- two different vehicles or machinery requiring installation of ancillary electronic systems and components
- tools, equipment and materials appropriate for installing ancillary electronic systems and components.
