Welcome back educators to our series on empowering you with the best resources for your students' success.
In this article, we’ll dive into ASE’s A5: Brakes, exploring how AutoEDU's training aids can equip your students with the knowledge and skills they need to master the ins and outs of automotive brakes.
In collaboration with AutoEDU, EdTech Global is thrilled to present our fifth installment in our nine-part series.
Welcome to Part five.
Let's talk about Brakes (A5)
The ASE A5 Brakes certification assesses an automotive technician's knowledge of all three key brake system components:
Hydraulic System: Understanding components like brake lines and the master cylinder that transfer the force from the pedal to the brakes. Student technicians need to diagnose, repair, and maintain these components ensuring proper pressure distribution.
Mechanical Foundation System: The components responsible for creating friction and stopping the vehicle, think discs and pads in disc brakes or drums and shoes in drum brakes. Student technicians must be proficient in servicing, replacing, and adjusting these parts for optimal braking performance.
Electronic System: Modern cars often incorporate electronic components into their braking systems. These components can warn drivers of brake malfunctions and, in anti-lock brake (ABS) systems, help prevent wheel lockup during hard braking. Student technicians need to understand the function and operation of these electronic components for comprehensive brake system diagnosis and repair.
To help reduce the learning curve, AutoEDU uses OEM components and systems to provide your students with hands-on experience with the tools they'll encounter in the field.
