AURETR033 Develop and apply network electronic control system modifications
Assessment tool
Version 1.0 Issue Date: March 2024
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to develop, apply and validate significant modifications to existing network electronic control systems in order to vary or enhance performance. These systems include two-wire high and low speed (CAN-bus) and single wire low speed (LIN-bus) network circuits. The unit involves identifying the modification requirement, developing the modification specifications, applying and testing the modification, and completing workplace processes and documentation.
Significant and non-routine modifications are those that require compliance with Australian Design Rules and Vehicle Safety Bulletins.
It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. The network electronic control systems include those of agricultural machinery, heavy commercial vehicles, light vehicles, marine vessels, mobile plant machinery, motorcycles or outdoor power equipment.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the network electronic control systems that they have modified, e.g. repair orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
automotive service repair workplace or simulated workplace
workplace instructions
manufacturer network electronic control system specifications
ADRs and VSBs relating to network electronic control system modifications
two different vehicles, vessels, machinery or equipment requiring network electronic control system modification
diagnostic equipment for network electronic control system modification, including scan tools and oscilloscopes
tools, equipment and materials appropriate for completing network electronic control system modifications.
