  1. Good afternoon!
    I have just red your book Automotive Techician Training theory levels 1,2,3, 2014 edition and although it is a very detailed and well written book on pages 518 – 531 the waveforms are missing from the charts (they are empty).
    As a result chapter 10 of advanced diagnostics is useless. I was wondering if there is a way to find them in your webside or elseware.

    Thanks

    1. Hi George, these are deliberately left out of the book as are many labels etc. from diagrams as the book is designed to be used with our eLearning system. I will come back asap with details for you about how to access this.

      Regards, Tom

    1. thanks Ade, i replied to your email and you are right, there is a typo:
      Advanced automotive fault diagnosis Page 85 Figure 4.23 is labelled as a knock sensor and of course it should be an oxygen sensor

      My average is still pretty good though 🙂

    1. Thank you Samuel, it is always nice to hear that my books are being used and appreciated. There is a 5th edition of the book- note sure what version you have?

      Either way, head over to http://www.automotive-technology.org and you can access a course area where that has some additional material – no charge. The latest book is several hundred pages so not much missed out!!
