Probably the most revolutionary classroom training tool available today!

Imagine having the ability to actually insert real faults into the vehicle of your choice. Then, imagine capturing your student's data into a management system that tracks every step of their analysis.

The Smart Vehicle bridges classroom theory and laboratory simulations with real-world applications on live vehicles. Installed in a working vehicle, the computer controlled fault insertion programme allows the instructor to insert faults into the vehicle from a teacher workstation. Students then apply their knowledge of vehicle systems and their knowledge of electronics to correctly identify symptoms and diagnose actual faults. The software presents students with real-life, hands-on experience in diagnosing and repairing these faults. It is designed to develop a logical and efficient approach to troubleshooting an automotive electronic system. Through hands-on practice in diagnostic procedures, students sharpen their problem-solving skills. This training proves invaluable in the workforce and serves as the foundation for the student's future technological skills. Individuals who complete the required courses and begin to practice their chosen trade are more efficient in their approach to solving vehicle problems. Any petrol and diesel model vehicle can be customised to serve the lab's needs. The entire CML (Computer Managed Laboratory) network can be linked up to a real vehicle. Fault-insertion Capability in the following electronic systems on any make and model vehicle:

Training students in proper diagnostic procedure translates into efficient, skilled technicians able to meet certification standards and, ultimately, to generate revenue for the shop or dealership. Part of training students in appropriate diagnostic procedure also includes preparing them to use the "tools of the trade."

ITE's Custom Programmed Software provides practice in the use of a:
