Maximise your opportunity in 2022

Not all workshops offer Air Con servicing, and with the majority of new cars now coming with AC as standard the opportunity and potential return on investment speaks for itself. If you’ve already invested AC have you considered a second machine? Does your current offering cover both types of AC gas? Or if you can you service hybrid or EV vehicles? Being able to service any car may be easier than you think!

Hybrids, EVs and th

You will no doubt start to see an increase in hybrid and electric vehicles entering your workshop over the coming months. Question is, do you have the skills and equipment to deal with them? As air con season is upon us, more vehicles will be making their way to your workshop with air con system issues and some of those will be hybrid and electric vehicles. Do you and your staff know the fundamental differences between an internal combustion engine aircon system and a hybrid and EV system?

Let’s take a look...

■ The greatest risk for a hybrid electric air con system is that if the incorrect type of PAG oil is used, it may conduct high voltage to the compressor case or connected components. A person may receive an electric shock if they touch the compressor or engine and an appropriate ground, and components will be damaged. ■ The air con system in a hybrid or electric vehicle is not only there to give cabin comfort, the system is essential in providing cooling to both the electric motors, axles and the battery systems, both of which produce large volumes of heat in use, and without a working, efficient air con system, will overheat and fail. ■ Sensors in the compressor case can detect very small voltage leaks. Once a leak is detected, the control system will shut down the compressor.

■ The air conditioning compressors in some hybrid and electric vehicles are operated by an electric motor instead of a drive belt. ■ The oils used in these compressors are formulated to have high dielectric properties, that makes them non-conductive. As little as 1% contamination by improper oil can reduce the dielectric properties. ■ Users must have an air con machine that is ‘Hybrid ready/compatible’ – the function to self-clear its hoses and oils so that no cross contamination occurs. ■ If a different type of oil gets into one of these compressors a variety of issues may occur.

INA timing belts

INA Timing Belt and FEAD * belt system training

We often hear from vehicle Technicians they have not undertaken, or even been offered, any updated training for Timing belt & FEAD drive systems since their initial mechanical training. Often commenting they don’t really need additional training, they also think because they have been working on these systems without issue for years, they know everything there is to know about belt drive systems.

It’s a fair comment, and they may have had no issues… yet! However, there have been some real major technological developments made to belt systems over the last ten years, and on the face of it, information regarding these advances is still very thin on the ground. So, it is important not to forget, if you think your knowledge is up to date, then you won’t go looking for more information until something goes wrong…

To see if you could benefit from an update, test yourself to see if you can answer the four questions below: 1. Oval Crankshaft and Camshaft sprockets are fitted to high volume production engines today from

Ford, PSA & VAG. How can you identify them and what is their purpose? 2. Do common rail High Pressure Fuel Injection Pumps need to be timed?

3. Many Camshaft and High-Pressure Fuel Pump sprockets have to be released from their mounts during a Timing Belt change? Why is this, and what effect does not releasing them have on the Timing Belt drive system? 4. Why do you need two tensioner rollers on a Starter / Generator FEAD system?

AGM Technology AGM is the leading technology on the market for the most exacting requirements. AGM batteries are engineered to cope with the excess heat created by regenerative braking and the continuous on/off action of the Stop-Start system. Importantly, they power the electrics when the engine is in “sleep mode”, at traffic lights or stuck in traffic jams.

EFB Technology EFB technology satisfies requirements that lie somewhere between conventional starter batteries and AGM technology. Like AGM, EFB batteries power the electrics when the engine is in “sleep mode”. They ensure that sufficient energy is always available, even when a large number of energy consumers are operating during the stop phase.
