  • FDRS (Ford Diagnostic Repair System),
  • IDS (Integrated Diagnostic System),
  • Ford Transit Connect,
  • 6.7 Diesel and Gas Engine Performance

Training includes instructor lead lectures, how the systems work, and proper diagnostic techniques using Ford IDS and FDRS scan tools and Factory workshop publications (Workshop Manual, PC/ED-Powertrain Control/ Emissions Diagnosis and wiring diagrams) located in OASSIS/PTS. The purpose of Ford Fleet training is to provide the fleet technician/mechanic with the skills, knowledge and ability to diagnose and repair Ford vehicles used in their fleet motor pool, according to the press release.

Courtney Woods, the Motor Pool supervisor, thanked the commissioner for signing off on the training and noted that, once again, all trainees passed the course.

“This is one step closer to getting to industry standards. This will give us the opportunity to
keep the department’s vehicles instead of taking them elsewhere for repairs,” Woods said.
