JDCE2320 — John Deere C&F Advanced Electronic Systems & Engine Technology
This course places emphasis on electronic control systems used in John Deere construction equipment. Presenting the design and function of electronic system controls. A study of input sensors used to measure position, speed, temperature, pressure, air flow, proximity, light, fluid level, contamination and exhaust emissions. The function of electronic controllers, drivers and system outputs to actuators including pulse width modulation. Controller communication, LIN and CAN systems are discussed. Topics include electronic control systems, ignition systems, electronic diesel fuel injection systems, emission control strategies, and exhaust aftertreatment system technology. Use test meters to measure volts, amps, frequency and duty cycle for system diagnostics. Use Service Advisor as a scanning and diagnostic tool as well as machine OBD systems. An advanced look into using system functional schematics and electrical diagrams is included. Use tools and resources to complete the hands-on machine electronics and engine systems diagnostic lab activities. Safety while working with fuels, moving parts, extreme heat, and high pressure injection systems will be practiced. Location: M Classroom
