Automotive electrics fundamentals
The role of electricity in modern vehicles, Ohm's law applied to diagnosis, electrical magnitudes (resistance, amperage, voltage) and circuit principles.
Ohm's law, multimeter and logic probe, starting and charging circuits, and reading wiring diagrams. The foundation every technician needs to diagnose with judgment.
Recorded classes with theory and practice, on demand and at your own pace.
Downloadable material with the course content to consult in the shop.
Access to the Openauto community to ask questions and share real cases.
Digital diploma that backs your training when you finish the course.
In-person training is expensive, halts your operation and often teaches theory you can't apply. Meanwhile, customers want more power, better performance and diagnostics your basic scanner can no longer solve.
The role of electricity in modern vehicles, Ohm's law applied to diagnosis, electrical magnitudes (resistance, amperage, voltage) and circuit principles.
Features and functions of the automotive digital multimeter, precise measurement techniques, logic probe applications and troubleshooting.
Anatomy and operation of the charging circuit, strategies to diagnose faults, diagnostic tools and preventive maintenance.
Key components of the starting system, methods to identify faults, repair best practices and strategies to optimize performance.
Fundamentals of automotive wiring diagrams, techniques to read and interpret different types, and practical diagnostic cases based on diagrams.
Modern methods to program without errors and in a fraction of the time. Ready-to-use templates.
When you finish you get a digital Openauto Academy certificate that backs your training with customers.
Study when you can: the material is recorded and the group mentorships stay available to review.
Every week, live, an instructor reviews the group's real cases, helps with .bin files and answers questions.
A complete library from fundamentals to advanced topics — always available, with search.
Access to our AI copilot trained on the Openauto method: it helps you with .bin files, maps and diagnosis instantly.
Over a decade programming ECUs in real workshops before building Openauto Academy. No classroom professors: you learn from engineers and technicians who have lived off chiptuning since 2010.
"Thanks to engineer Andrés Meléndez's courses —electronics, common rail and WinOLS 1, 2 and 3— I grew my income without having to leave my country. Today I serve workshops inside and outside Venezuela."
"I started knowing nothing. With WinOLS 1, 2 and 3 I learned to load reprogrammings and to diagnose in the shop. I also recommend the ECM and RaceEVO courses."
"I took Open Auto's programming bundle and it helped me a lot. Today I diagnose and do jobs I didn't dare to before. Andrés explains things very well."
"Thanks to Open Auto I learned to do reprogrammings and to get the most out of diagnostic tools and map editing."
"We do reading and programming of DPF OFF and EGR. Open Auto's training was a key pillar for my professional growth."
