This course will introduce students to the fundamentals of the automotive braking system. The first of two courses, students will learn the theory of hydraulic, mechanical, vacuum, and electronic systems of automobile brakes. Students will check hydraulic components for internal and external leaks and determine necessary action; measure and adjust brake pedal height and parking brake linkage; and conduct maintenance procedures on drum brake and disc brake systems. Additionally, Students will inspect the power booster and identify the components of the anti-lock brake (ABS) traction control, and the regenerative braking system and determine necessary action.
