It goes without saying that workplace safety and health are crucial. If you prioritise profit over the health of your
employees, you might get into a lot of problems. Even worse, if a mishap happens while at work, the employer may
be held liable.
WHS favours and efforts to guarantee the avoidance of mistakes and additional occurrences at the workplace.
Companies and even labourers may maximise their energy and time by doing this. In simple terms, WHS is crucial
as it increases production and reduces effort.

Tool/ Equipment When is the tool/ equipment used for including, safety precautions you
would take?
Scan Tool A scan tool is a diagnostic instrument for automobiles that has a variety of
characteristics. Code readers, the capacity to display and organise real-time data,
and some kind of knowledge base are frequently included in scan tools.
DMM Digital Multimeter: A measuring device or VOM with a digital display that
measures variables such as voltage, resistance, and current.
Oscilloscope Oscilloscopes (or scopes) analyse and show voltage readings as waveforms,
which are pictures of how voltage changes as time passes. Signal variations are
depicted onto a graph by the signals, which is displayed. The horizontal (X) axis
indicates time, while the vertical (Y) axis shows voltage measurement.
Test light When testing outlets or other electrical devices, test lights are typically used to
detect whether voltage is present in a circuit (the circuit is energised). The test
light bulb turns on when the outlet is powered up when it is being tested.
Vernier Caliper A measuring tool which is used to measure linear dimensions is known as a
vernier calliper. With the aid of the measuring jaws, it is additionally utilised to
determine the circumference of circular objects.
Multimeter The main electrical quantities that may be measured using a digital multimeter are
voltage (volts), current (amps), and resistance (ohms). For skilled workers
working in the automotive and electronic sectors, it is a typical diagnostic tool.

Question 7: What is the principal function of the OBD-II system?
OBD-II scanners are used by auto mechanics and owners to interpret the data the system collects. In addition to
engine RPM, it may offer information on your car's air temperature, coolant, crankshaft and camshaft position, as
well as its road speed and throttle.
Question 8: What is the purpose of an OBD-II monitor and give an example of what it can monitor?
OBD2 Readiness Monitors are straightforward yet effective self-check procedures. They offer understanding to the
vehicle's self-diagnostics. The emission control systems of the automobile are self-tested by readiness monitors.
Emissions Monitors is another name for the devices. As their name suggests, they keep an eye on how the systems
that control emissions in cars operate.
Up to 11 system tests or procedures can be carried out by cars. These assessments are referred to as readiness
monitors. Whether the tests were successfully performed by the car's computer is shown by the output of readiness
monitors.

Open Loop
The engine works in a "Open Loop" when the engine is cold and is started or when there is an issue with the engine.
This means that the Engine Control Module (ECM) will disregard the majority of sensor readings and use predefined
parameters set by the factory to control the engine, more specifically the engine's air/fuel mixture.
Closed Loop
When operating in closed loop mode, the ECU will calculate the proper quantity of fuel to inject into the engine
based on information from the lambda sensor in the exhaust. On the basis of the actual outcome of the combustion,
the ECU can then change the air/fuel ratio. The ECU injects less gasoline when the lambda sensor indicates that the
mixture is rich.

Question 10: Briefly explain the OBD-II trip and OBD-II drive cycle?
OBD II trip: -
Although there are a few exemptions, the OBD II system uses "two-trip" identification reason, with the additional
conditions that the coolant temperature is above a minimum prescribed level and that the ECU is in closed loop
communication with the emission control system components/sensors. A trip is defined in this context as a period
during which the vehicle is in operation.

Evidence, Frequency, Measured, Modulated, Noise, Observe, Off, Oscilloscope, Pulse, Shape, Solenoids,
Spikes, Test, Turning, Watching, Waveforms, Width
On an Oscilloscope trace, the on-time pulse is the Downward pulse. On positive-feed circuits, where the is
supplying the voltage to turn a circuit on, the on-time computer is the upward pulse.
One complete cycle is measured from one on-time pulse to the beginning of the next on-time pulse.
To test an actuator, you need to know what it basically is. Most actuators are
solenoids. The computer controls the action of the solenoid by controlling the pulse
width of the control signal. You can see the turning on and off the solenoid by
watching the control signal. The voltage spikes are caused by the discharge of the coil in the solenoid. Some
actuators are controlled pulse-width modulated signals. These signals show a changing pulse width.
These devices are controlled by varying the pulse width, signal frequency, and voltage levels. Both waveforms
should be checked for amplitude, time, and shape. You should also
A bad waveform will have noise, glitches, or rounded corners. You should be able to
see evidence that the actuator immediately turns off and on according to the commands of the computer.

1. Gathering data on the issue, figuring out when and where it occurs, and what precisely takes place.
2. By driving the car and attempting to reproduce the issue to confirm that it really does exist. if at all feasible.
3. Clearly define the issue and the time it happens. Pay close attention to the circumstances that exist when
the issue occurs.
4. Examine all the facts at your disposal to identify any potential root causes of the issue. Try to connect a
system or a few components to the problem by thinking about what is happening or by trying to match the
precise problem with a symptoms chart.
5. Use testing to pinpoint the issue. Check the apparent or simple items to help narrow down the likely sources
of the issue.
6. Keep conducting tests to identify the issue's root cause. Test till you identify the issue once you know where
it should be!
7. Don't presume that the initial issue was resolved by your efforts. Check the issue, fix it, and then confirm the
fix. Before returning the car to the customer, be sure the issue has been resolved.

Assessment Task 2: Job Safety Analysis
TASK SUMMARY:
This task is designed to develop your skills in identifying WH&S hazards/risks relating to the diagnosis of
complex system faults.
A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a procedure which helps integrate accepted workplace health and safety
principles and practices into a particular task or job to eliminate or reduce the risks or hazards to as low as is
reasonably practical.
Conducting a JSA will allow you to identify all potential hazards associated with a task(s) or job and to put in
place control measures to manage the risks to ensure the task or job is completed safely.

INSTRUCTIONS
You will be required to follow the steps below to conduct a risk assessment of your work area to identify if
there are any hazards associated with the work you will complete before commencing any practical
assessment tasks described in this student assessment pack (ie. Assessment Task 3).
Steps:
1. Consider the tasks/ job you will complete for any potential hazards.
2. Conduct a risk assessment (to determine the level of risk) of each hazard you have identified using the
RISK Matrix.
5. Record the level of risk as: 12-25 (Extreme), 7-11 (Moderate to High), 4-6 (Low to Moderate), or
1-3 (Low) by using the RISK Matrix to determine the level of risk.
6. Once you have completed the JSA form, discuss the outcome of the hazard analysis, ie
recommended control measures with your assessor.
Any hazards identified will then need to be assessed to determine their level of risk and to put in place
control measures to manage the risk.
