If you have information on training you wish to share, please get in touch with the editor via email: alex@aftermarket.co.uk Delphi Technologies is offering a new three- part training module on Pass-thru technology on its Delphi Technologies Academy online training platform. The course includes a five-minute overview video, followed by a hardware set-up video and a quiz. The module takes less than 25 minutes to complete, and is worth 0.4 IMI CPD credits. Phil Mitchell, Technical Services Manager, Delphi Technologies Aftermarket, said: “Pass-thru is a powerful diagnostic tool, but it must be used carefully. The principle of Pass-thru is based on giving independent garages the same diagnostics and ECU-programming capability as a main dealer. This is achieved by accessing VM data via a specifically designed piece of hardware such as Delphi’s BlueTech diagnostic tool. “The BlueTech Vehicle Communication Interface (VCI) is a powerful, universal interface which enables Pass-thru functionality and its usage is covered in Delphi’s latest elearning module. The online learning system also provides information specific to using each individual manufacturer’s portal – this is critical to a successful adoption of Pass-thru capability as every VM has a different way of hosting and accessing the data.” Phil added: “The Academy training gives technicians a robust grounding in Pass-thru basics, empowering them for OEM-level repairs. Ultimately, this means your facility can offer customers dealer-level support without the cost.” Further information on the Delphi Technologies Academy can be found at: https://academy.delphiautoparts.com Delphi Technologies Academy Pass-thru training launched Follow us on Facebook/aftermarket magazine
