The adoption of multiplexed vehicle networks has transformed how modern fleet vehicles operate and communicate. By allowing multiple electronic control units (ECUs) to share data over common communication lines, multiplexing significantly reduces wiring complexity while enabling advanced vehicle functions such as diagnostics, predictive maintenance, and safety system integration.
Understanding how these control systems communicate is critical. Modern vehicles—whether powered by diesel, CNG, propane, hybrid, or electric powertrains—use networked controllers that rely on Controller Area Network (CAN), LIN, and Ethernet communication systems. Technicians who can interpret these signals and diagnose network or module faults can identify issues faster, minimize downtime, and keep vehicles on the road longer.
Key Concepts: Fault identification, wiring diagram interpretation, PLC logic fundamentals, basic programming, network communication, and practical diagnostic techniques.

WTA’s Engine Diagnostic Controls Advanced Technician Training Course equips fleet technicians with the skills required to identify faults quickly, avoid unnecessary parts replacement, and perform precise, cost-effective repairs across modern engine and powertrain platforms.
Hands-on instruction is central to this course. Participants use scan tools, code readers, digital multimeters, pressure and flow testing tools, and oscilloscopes to evaluate engine data, analyze waveforms, interpret diagnostic trouble codes, and verify component operation. Training focuses on real-world diagnostic procedures, ensuring technicians gain the confidence and repeatable methods needed to solve complex performance, drivability, and emissions issues.
By the end of training, technicians have a deeper understanding of advanced engine control strategies and the diagnostic tools required to support high-uptime fleet operations.
Key Concepts: Engine control theory, diagnostic strategies, electronic and mechanical system testing, powertrain communication, and troubleshooting for electric, diesel, and CNG engines.

A technician’s ability to interpret CAN signals, diagnose communication faults, and understand telematics integrations is now essential to maintaining uptime and reliability.
Learn CAN and telematics fundamentals, including how the Controller Area Network (CAN) enables real-time communication between a vehicle’s electronic control units (ECUs), and how telematics systems collect, transmit, and analyze data for fleet management.
Participants will gain the ability to interpret and troubleshoot connected vehicle systems, improving diagnostic accuracy, communication reliability, and fleet performance. Fleet managers will better understand how CAN and telematics data can enhance operations and maintenance efficiency.
Key Concepts: CAN bus operation, ECU communication, telematics data acquisition, system monitoring, fault identification, and hands-on analysis of vehicle network traffic.
