How to Use the Snap-On MT2500 With the ever increasing electronic content in today's vehicles, the scan tool has become the tool of choice to look into the ECM or module functions. The scanner is the only window into what the different modules are doing. One thing's to use an oscilloscope or GMM, but to know what the computer is actually interpreting, your only choice is this piece of equipment. This book is different than other book on the MT2500. This book actually teaches you how to use the equipment and interpret the PID datastream. This book also borrows from some of our other publications, but geared towards the MT2500. We also expose the use of other diagnostic equipment and how to use them together. In today's automotive repair shop the technician has to be able to use the equipment and draw relational characteristics between the signal. It is from these relations that the tech arrives to the true repair. It's not just using the MT2500. It's using the MT2500 and see if the scope and multi-meter readings also support the repair conclusion. Snap-On has over the years developed into a leader in diagnostic equipment. With that in mind, lets learn to use the MT2500 to its fullest and become a profitable, top technician. Remember, learning to use your equipment will also teach you a great deal of diagnostics.

(GDI) Gasoline Direct Injection Explained(A Gasoline Direct Injection Technology Series)By Mandy ConcepcionThis book, "(GDI) Gasoline Direct Injection Explained" covers the major points of this technology. It is a must first book for anyone interested in updating and understanding the finer points of this technology. All the major auto makers are now releasing new models with GDI injection. This technology is easy and faster to manufacture, now that the engineering has pretty much been polished. Gone are the carbon issues of the past. GDI has matured and is here to stay. This book will cover sensors and feedback programs that only GDI systems employ. There are some, but few similarities between GDI and PFI, which we'll cover here. The main differences are in the high pressures needed and the way injectors are triggered (not with 12 volts). Other issues that may render a GDI inoperative are the NOx systems, which is also covered in this book. We hope this book serves as a launching point for a complete and proper GDI Technology training regime. Enjoy.Table of contents(GDI) Gasoline Direct Injection Explained * GDI Advantages* GDI vs PFI Fuel Injection* GDI Spray Guided Combustion* GDI Wall Guided Combustion* GDI Injector Operation* GDI Injector Testing* GDI Injection Failures* GDI High Pressure Pump Construction* GDI High Pressure Pump Tests* GDI Pressure Sensor* GDI Pressure Sensor Testing* GDI Pressure Control Solenoid* GDI NOx Sensor Operation* GDI NOx Sensor Testing* GDI Erroneous NOx Codes* GDI Exhaust Temp Sensor* GDI Exhaust Temp Sensor Testing* GDI NOx Catalyst Operation* GDI NOx Catalyst Testing* GDI NOx Catalyst Regeneration

Arduino Automotive Conversion Projects This work has been a labor of love. It is meant to compliment and broaden the working knowledge of the automotive driver/enthusiast and DIY Technician. The idea is to provide the way to perform vehicle conversions for those who want tolearn these systems or those that need it. Often times the specific component is discontinued and non-replaceable. Other times the vehicle simply needs a complete replacement system. This book is totally based on actual working conditions and real life Arduino conversions. With that intent, special thanks are given to Mr. Gino Ferrulli for his incredible support of my business, especially during the Covid-19 years. Thisbook, including waveform captures and photographs would have been impossible to acquire and assemble without his business support. My gratitude to him and his family. And last, but not least, thanks to my wife Carmen for her support and encouragement. I really needed it at times. But most of all, this book was done for you, "The DIY Mechanic or Tech". The guy (or girl in some cases) who works all day long and studies at night to further his/her career in spite of the stress of the day. This work was done for you. I hope you enjoy and learn from it. Remember, no matter what happens keep building your knowledge.

How to Use The Snap-On MODIS With the ever increasing electronic content in today's vehicles, the scan tool has become the tool of choice to look into the ECM or module func-tions. The scanner is the only window into what the different modules are doing. One thing's to use an oscilloscope or GMM, but to know what the computer is actually interpreting, your only choice is this piece of equip-ment. This book is different than other book on the MODIS. This book actually teaches you how to use the equipment and interpret the PID datastream. This book also borrows from some of our other publications, but geared towards the Modis. We also expose the use of other diagnostic equipment and how to use them together. In today's automotive repair shop the technician has to be able to use the equipment and draw relational char-acteristics between the signal. It is from these relations that the tech ar-rives to the true repair. It's not just using the Modis. It's using the Modis and see if the scope and multi-meter readings also support the repair conclusion. Snap-On has over the years developed into a leader in diagnostic equip-ment. With that in mind, lets learn to use the MODIS to its fullest and be-come a profitable, top technician. Remember, learning to use your equip-ment will also teach you a great deal of diagnostics.
