AURLTB001 Overhaul light vehicle braking system components
Assessment tool
Version 1.0 Issue Date: April 2024
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to return light vehicle braking system components to original manufacturer tolerances and clearances. It involves preparing for the task, dismantling and evaluating the braking system components, carrying out the overhaul procedures, reassembling and testing the components, and completing workplace processes and documentation.
It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. The braking systems include those of light vehicles, light commercial vehicles or outdoor power equipment. This unit does not apply to the braking systems of agricultural machinery, heavy commercial vehicles, mobile plant machinery or motorcycles.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory 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)
