EV Components & Electric Drive Motors.

Catalog description

In this course we will cover the essential aspects of electric vehicle drive units and electric motors, from the basics of motor types to advanced technologies and system integration. Students will learn about EV/HEV drive units and their operation. Topics covered will include drive unit components (rotors, stators, gearboxes, housing), different types of drive units, and diagnostics as they relate to EV driveability concerns. Students will practice using scan tools and HEV/EV-rated tools to perform repairs and component replacements on electric vehicles. They will apply this technical knowledge paired with their diagnostic experience in previous classes to successfully diagnose and repair various EV drive unit concerns. Prerequisites: AUT 271 .
