The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. |
Failure analysis and evaluation process | The objective of the failure analysis and evaluation process may be to determine fault rectification measures, to effect variation in system characteristics and parameters or to enhance system performance. |
Motorcycles | Motorcycles are to include two-wheel, four-wheel and two-wheel fitted with sidecar. |
Electrical/electronic systems | Electrical/electronic systems covered in this unit are to include lighting, ignition, charging, fuel injection, ABS, engine management and safety lock-out systems. |
Electrical/electronic systems failures | Electrical/electronic system failures covered in this unit are to include lighting (short circuit, grounded circuit, open circuit, faulty equipment, switches and relays), ignition (no-start, no-run, misfire, erratic operation, lack of power, charging, security lock-out), fuel injection (contamination, loss of power, no-start, poor or erratic running, abnormal emissions), ABS (intermittent faults, operator feedback), engine management (poor performance, lack of power, erratic running, induction interference), safety lock-out systems (failure to crank, engine stops). Electrical/electronic system failures covered in this unit are to include indirect faults caused by the influence of external systems which may or may not be faulty in their primary operations. |
Unit context | OH&S requirements include vehicle industry regulations, safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods code and safe operating procedures. Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, Australian Design Rules, environmental legislation, health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements. Work requires individuals to demonstrate research, analytical, judgement and problem-solving skills in the diagnosis of faults. |
Evaluative criteria | Evaluative criteria, sometimes referred to as success factors, detail the criteria against which the achievement of the objectives of the analysis are judged. They are to include statistically based criteria and may include other measures. |
Isolation procedures | Equipment isolation procedures are to industry and enterprise standards. |
Testing equipment | Testing equipment is to include ABS diagnostic tooling, computer-based diagnostic systems, electronic vacuum gauge, engine control unit analyser, engine emission tester, fuel pressure and flow meter, headlight aiming testing equipment, injector tester, LED test lights, magnetic coil condenser tester, multimeter, peak voltage meters, resister flow dynamometer, vacuum gauge. |
Tests | Tests to be conducted are to include accumulator pressure, disc stack height, pressure, system performance (distance/balance), sensor/actuator and wiring harness integrity, sampling (collection and processing, wear analysis (drum/disc/lining material) and monitoring/analysis of computer-based diagnostic systems. |
Personal protective equipment | Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices. |
Information and procedures | Workplace procedures relating to the use of tooling and equipment. Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication. Manufacturer/component supplier specifications and application procedures for testing equipment and material. Manufacturer/component supplier specifications, schematics and operational procedures related to motorcycle electrical/electronic systems. Australian Design Rules. Motorcycle industry regulations. Motorcycle industry publications related to emerging electrical/electronic system technology and technology changes. |
