Udemy – Automotive Diagnostics (OBD) 2025-5

Automotive Diagnostics (OBD) Course. This course introduces participants to the fundamentals, technologies, and advanced methods in automotive diagnostics, from traditional OBD-II systems to Integrated Diagnostic Services (UDS) and predictive maintenance. The course examines the place of diagnostics in the automotive development cycle, fault diagnosis strategies (model-driven and data-driven), and the impact of regulations on standards such as ISO 14229 and SAE J1979. Practical examples, such as the dual-clutch transmission diagnostic system, illustrate the application of software in modern vehicles. Topics such as the UDS message structure, the OSI model, and security challenges associated with diagnostic ports are also covered. With the increasing connectivity of vehicles, topics such as integrating diagnostics with telematics, over-the-air updates, and cloud-based monitoring are discussed. This course is suitable for automotive engineers, technicians, tool developers and trainers and combines theory and practical examples to provide comprehensive knowledge in the field of automotive fault diagnosis and management. Regardless of the work environment (workshop or ECU design), participants will gain a better understanding of current and future technologies in the automotive industry.
