SAFETY FIRST
Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for safe,
reliable operation of all motor vehicles as well as the personal safety of the individual
performing the repair. There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools
and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the individual performing the
service. This module cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice
or caution to each. Accordingly, anyone who departs from the instruction provided in
this module must first establish that they compromise neither their personal safety nor
the vehicle integrity by their choice of methods, tools or parts. The following list
contains general warnings that should always be followed while working on a vehicle.
• Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
• Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires underbody work.
• Be sure the ignition switch is always off unless otherwise specified by a procedure.
• Set the parking brake when working on the vehicle.
• Operate the engine only in a well ventilated area.
• Keep clear of moving parts when the engine is running.
• To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator,
exhaust manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
• Do not smoke while working on a vehicle.
Within this module you will find Notes, Cautions and Warnings which provide critical
information and help you do your job safely and efficiently. Below are the definitions
of these terms.

NOTE
The purpose of a Note is to help you do your job more efficiently. A Note may
provide additional information to help clarify a particular point or procedure.

CAUTION
A Caution alerts you to the possibility of damage to tools, equipment, or the
! vehicle. A Caution recommends that a procedure must be done in a certain way
to avoid potential problems resulting from improper techniques or methods.

WARNING
A Warning alerts you to the highest level of risk. Warnings inform you that a
! procedure must be done in a particular way to minimize the chances of an
accident that could result in personal injury or even loss of life.

When you see a Note, Caution or Warning, be certain you understand the message
before you attempt to perform any part of a service procedure.

Automatic Transmission External Diagnosis

Course Guide
COURSE OVERVIEW The Automatic Transmission External Diagnosis (ATED)
is performance-based course providing Kia service
technicians the opportunity to continue their A/T
diagnostic training begun in the A/T Internal Diagnosis
(ATID) instructor-led course, and to understand causes
determined not to be internal but external to the
transmission.

COURSE GOAL The goal of this course is to build upon the A/T
diagnostic skills Kia service technicians learned in ATID.
These goals include:

x Diagnostic flow from internal diagnosis flowchart to

external diagnosis
x DTC based A/T diagnostics using service information
x Inspecting external A/T electrical circuit voltages
x External sensor and actuator circuit inspection
x Non-DTC based A/T external diagnostic strategy

COURSE OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this course, the Kia Service

Technician will be able to demonstrate the following
skills with 80% or greater accuracy:

x Use DTC detecting conditions and strategy.

x Inspecting external A/T circuit voltages and signals.
x Print ETM to identify circuits and interpret results.
x Identify A/T sensors and actuators by type of signal.
x Measure and interpret electrical circuits with DMM
and BOB Pro.
x Measure and interpret electrical circuits with
GDS/VMI Scope
x Perform Signal Simulation Tests using GDS/VMI
x Inspect and interpret current A/T data.

EXPECTATIONS In the previous ATID ILT course you used the A/T
diagnostic flowchart and A/T Tester Pro to determine if
the transmission had an internal problem that required
A/T unit replacement or external diagnosis.

In this course you will be expected to use the

diagnostic process required in diagnosing external A/T
electrical circuits to fix the vehicle on the first visit.

ABOUT TRAINING Today's complex automotive technology demands that

MODULES you, the professional Kia service technician, stay up to-
date with the latest service information, special tools
and complex repair procedures. We have adopted a
modular training delivery system, designed to be part
of a structured training plan consisting of lecture,
interactive classroom discussion and hands-on shop
activities under the direction of a trained Kia instructor.

THEORY A Theory Module explains the subject allowing you to

obtain a working knowledge of a component or system,
and helping guide you to successful diagnosis and
repair.

GUIDED PRACTICE The Guided Practice Module allows you the

opportunity to practice through hands-on experience,
the process of diagnosing external A/T concerns. The
tasks are to be instructor supervised and verified.
These diagnosis and testing exercises may include: the
use of Kia service information system, accessing
Kdealer.net, live vehicle activities using GDS/VCI
equipment and much more.

PERFORMANCE The Performance Assessment Module provides you

ASSESSMENT the opportunity to demonstrate that you know the
process in diagnosing A/T related concerns. Each
technician must successfully complete this module. It is
designed to test your cognitive (knowledge) in
diagnosing a customer concern.
