1. BTEC Higher National Certificate Technical Units tmc

2. BTEC Higher National Certificate tmc During your HNC course you will be undertaking 5 technical units. These consist of the following: Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Systems. Advanced Vehicle Technology. Fault Diagnosis and Repair. Vehicle Microprocessor Systems. Computer Applications in the Motor Industry.

3. BTEC Higher National Certificate tmc The units are broken down into a series of Outcomes. To pass and achieve accreditation for each unit these outcomes must be covered. These outcomes can be proven by a series of ways: Assignments. Assessments - tests, both practical and theoretical. Possible evidence from the workplace. It is therefore vital that ALL assignments are completed within the specified time frame and all assessment tests sat.

4. BTEC Higher National Certificate tmc Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Systems. This unit can be summarised as these outcomes. To achieve the unit the student must: investigate vehicle electrical and electronic circuits - use of Ohms law, semi-conductors, symbols, diagrams and testing. analyse operation of sensors, actuators and displays - display devices testing of all the above. explain the principles of electromagnetic interference and operation of suppression devices.

5. BTEC Higher National Certificate tmc Advanced Vehicle Technology. This unit can be summarised as these outcomes. To achieve the unit the student must: investigate electronic power steering systems, active suspension and ride control systems. investigate ABS, traction control systems and DSC / CBC. investigate central body systems including advanced central locking, security systems and vehicle environmental control. carry out diagnostic procedures on the above systems.

6. BTEC Higher National Certificate tmc Fault Diagnosis and Repair. This unit can be summarised as these outcomes. To achieve the unit the student must: select suitable criteria for fault diagnosis, interpreting symptoms and repair recommendations. apply principles of measurement and testing to determine the performance of a vehicle system. evaluate and present test results and produce fault location guides for a given vehicle system.

7. BTEC Higher National Certificate tmc Vehicle Microprocessor Systems. This unit can be summarised as these outcomes. To achieve the unit the student must: investigate microprocessor architecture and operation. investigate microprocessor interfacing. analyse communication between vehicle microprocessors. carry out diagnostic tests on vehicle microprocessor systems.
