"<p>Between the outdated curriculum and constantly evolving technology on trucks and equipment, it’s no surprise there’s a massive shortage of diesel technicians. This leaves those who work as technicians responsible for doing everything from performing routine maintenance to advanced diagnostics on complex data linking and electronic systems using various electronic tools. This large skills gap in day-to-day activities requires a new way of thinking. That’s why our team of former technicians has developed this class! We’ll teach technicians this new way of thinking and get them started on creating personal processes and workflows creating more confident technicians that can perform deeper and more complex diagnostics.</p>\n<div class=\"clearFloat\"></div>\n<!--Overview -->\n<div class=\"flex-container lifted\">\n<div class=\"image-ping\"><img alt=\"Scott Meek teaching diesel technicians\" src=\"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0058/6108/1170/files/Diagnostics_101_7.png?v=1633974082\"></div>\n<div class=\"inner-text\">\n<span class=\"fa-stack fa-2x\"><i class=\"fas fa-hexagon fa-stack-2x icon-background fa-rotate-90\"></i> <i class=\"fas fa-file-certificate fa-stack-1x\"></i></span>\n<h4>Step One in Becoming a Top Technician</h4>\n<p>Becoming a top technician today requires skills that simply can’t be taught in technical schools due to the rapidly evolving heavy-duty industry. Since they haven’t been able to learn these skills, technicians often get overwhelmed and frustrated with difficult electrical issues or repeat failures. This class will cover key concepts and the out-of-the-box thinking that technicians need to become true diagnosticians.</p>\n<p class=\"clickme click1\">See All Topics</p>\n</div>\n<div id=\"click1\" class=\"hidden-text\">\n<h3>Topics Covered:</h3>\n<ul class=\"one-up\">\n<li>How and where to begin your diagnostic steps each time you receive a vehicle for diagnosing</li>\n<li>Essential tools for performing most diagnostics</li>\n<li>How to rank fault codes and the importance of diagnosing the correct code</li>\n<li>The importance of visual and audible cues</li>\n<li>The importance of quickly locating and utilizing repair information</li>\n<li>What questions to ask the driver/operator and why this conversation is so important but often overlooked</li>\n<li>How to effectively and efficiently verify your repairs to eliminate comebacks and multi-repairs</li>\n</ul>\n</div>\n</div>\n<!--Start Looking at the Whole Picture -->\n<div class=\"flex-container lifted\">\n<img src=\"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0058/6108/1170/files/Diagnostics-101-5.png?v=1633973398\" alt=\"Mark Lipinski teaching\">\n<div class=\"inner-text\">\n<span class=\"fa-stack fa-2x\"><i class=\"fas fa-hexagon fa-stack-2x icon-background fa-rotate-90\"></i><i class=\"fas fa-truck-container fa-stack-1x\"></i></span>\n<h4>Start Looking at the Whole Picture</h4>\n<p>Technicians deal with a wide variety of scenarios and many trainings are geared towards a “perfect world” where diagnostics can be performed the same on every vehicle. As we all know, that’s not the case. This class will teach technicians how to create a personal workflow with a new way of thinking that will lead them to the right repair every time.</p>\n</div>\n</div>\n<!--Stop Wasting Time on Incorrect Repairs -->\n<div class=\"flex-container lifted\">\n<img src=\"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0058/6108/1170/files/Diagnostics_101_2.png?v=1633972205\" alt=\"Mark Lipinski teaching\">\n<div class=\"inner-text\">\n<span class=\"fa-stack fa-2x\"><i class=\"fas fa-hexagon fa-stack-2x icon-background fa-rotate-90\"></i><i class=\"fas fa-exclamation-triangle fa-stack-1x\"></i></span>\n<h4>Stop Wasting Time on Incorrect Repairs</h4>\n<p>How often have you seen technicians spend hours on diagnosing an issue and replacing parts only to realize they’re not addressing the root cause?
