Install and maintain motor vehicle instrumentation sensors and transmitters

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the performance outcomes required to install, adjust and maintain instrumentation sensors and transmitters used to gather data for development purposes.

It applies to those in an automotive and related component manufacturing environment.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section

1. Identify sensors, transmitters and final control elements

1.1 Workplace requirements relevant to the use of sensors, transmitters and final control elements are identified with appropriate personnel

1.2 Instructions and work plans are identified and interpreted

1.3 Specifications from data sheets, circuit diagrams and engineering drawings are determined

1.4 Sensors, transmitters and final control elements are selected and prepared, and installation is planned and documented

2. Install sensors, transmitters and final control elements

2.1 Equipment is prepared for installation

2.2 Equipment is installed

2.3 Test is set up to determine correct calibration, operation and data feed

3. Maintain and diagnose faults with sensors, transmitters and final control elements

3.1 Preventative maintenance schedules are implemented

3.2 Periodic tests to ensure continued integrity of data are undertaken

3.3 Sample data is viewed periodically for obvious irregularities and unexplained aberrations

4. Complete fault documentation and plan corrective action

4.1 Operation of sensors, transmitters and final control elements is monitored and assessed against predetermined specifications and manufacturer’s technical data

4.2 Fault conditions are identified, localised and monitored

4.3 Faults are documented and reported to appropriate personnel

5. Restore equipment and finalise housekeeping

5.1 Equipment is recovered, and checked for serviceability and calibration

5.2 Serviceable equipment is returned to store for future use

5.3 Unserviceable equipment is sent for repair or disposal according to workplace procedures

5.4 Workplace documentation and test results are completed

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This section specifies work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below.

Instructions must include:

job sheets, work plans, specifications and drawings

use and operation of tools and equipment

work health and safety (WHS) requirements relating to installing and maintaining motor vehicle instrumentation sensors and transmitters

workplace and manufacturer instructions.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
