DELCO-BOSCH ABS/TCS SYSTEM DELCO-BOSCH Antilock Brake - Traction Control System Program Features: • Realistic accelerator & brake pedal operation • Varying road conditions (ice, snow, wet, dry) • Selection of “controlled wheel” (left front, right front, left rear, right rear) • Antilock brake system can be operated in active or inactive mode • Traction Control System can be operated in active or inactive mode • Realistic “skidding” display during ABS and/or TCS inactive mode • Realistic relative stopping distances during ABS active and inactive mode • Realistic relative acceleration distances during TCS active and inactive mode • Isolation of antilock mode from traction control mode
This ATech program provides the instructional resources for a hands-on study of the DELCO - BOSCH Antilock Brake and Traction Control System. Realistic operation and troubleshooting allow the student to learn skills and knowledge necessary to work on this new generation of ABS/TCS controls. Students are able to practice manufacturer’s diagnostic procedures on live components using scan tools, multimeters, service manuals and other industry standard tools and references.
This ATech™ Trainer is a new model ABS/TCS system. Actual vehicle components are organized to enhance the concepts of computer controlled acceleration and brake functions.
electronic controller. If the Antilock system is placed in the inactive mode, the student can attempt to stop the vehicle in a shorter distance than the ABS system. If the student “over brakes” for the selected road condition, the vehicle displayed on the LCD will skid. Continued “overbraking” will result in the vehicle skidding off the road and crashing.
This trainer is the only ABS/TCS trainer in the world which allows the student to operate the system in a “competitive” mode with the
“Competitive” mode of the Traction Control system allows the student to accelerate the vehicle to reach 30 MPH as the trainer displays the

acceleration (starting) distance. “Overaccelerating” for the selected road condition causes the vehicle displayed on the LCD to skid. Continued “overacceleration” will result in the vehicle crashing. This competitive operation of the trainer allows the student to see in a realistic manner the benefit of an ABS/TCS system and how difficult it is to out perform either the stopping capability of the Antilock Braking System or the acceleration capability of the Traction Control System.
System Inputs The input component signals can be varied to study the system under dynamic operating conditions. Sensors: Left Front Wheel Speed, Right Front Wheel Speed, Left Rear Wheel Speed, Right Rear Wheel Speed Switches: Ignition, TCS on-off, ABS active/inactive, TCS active/inactive, Wheel Select (LF, RF, LR, RR), Road Condition Select (Ice, Snow, Wet, Dry), Hydraulic Unit Separation Switch (EBTCM/BPMV), LF Wheel Speed Sensor Disconnect, RF Wheel Speed Sensor Disconnect, LR Wheel Speed Sensor Disconnect, RR Wheel Speed Sensor Disconnect. Displays: Digital display of Starting/Stopping Distance and Vehicle Speed, Requested Torque Indicator Bargraph, Magnatrac Steering Effort Indicator Bargraph, Liquid Crystal Display of Vehicle Speed in Kilometers per Hour, Starting/Stopping Distance in Kilometers, and “skidding” vehicle. Inputs: Realistic accelerator pedal operation, Realistic brake pedal operation. System Control System control is performed by an actual Electronic Brake Traction Control Module (EBTCM) which responds to input signals just as an automobile would. The EBTCM is capable of performing passive and active self tests, and operates
without inadvertent system faults.

The wiring on the ATech Trainer conforms to the color coding in the Service Manual schematics. Power Supply An internal power supply is included with the Trainer. A power cord allows hook-up to any standard electrical outlet.
Operation Manual Included is an operation manual which provides instructor orientation, set-up instructions, operation procedures, maintenance and support information. Shipping 150 lbs., 36”H x 42”W x 20”D For More Information Contact ATech at 606 485-7229 or your local ATech sales representative.
Options Complete Instructional Courseware - Model 1435 The Student Manuals provide students with practical instruction. Student activities have been designed using the GM Reference Book and Factory Service Manual (incorporated into the courseware). “On Trainer Worksheets” give students an opportunity to gain hands-on experience prior to working on live vehicles. The program objectives are based on ASE/NATEF tasks. Student progress can be tracked using record keeping sheets (included in the student manual) and free ASE/NATEF record keeping software available from ATech’s website. The Instructor Manual provides product information, guide sheets, worksheet masters and answers. Both Student Manual and Instructor Guide come with an on-site photocopy license.
