Servicing Hybrid A/C – Tips For The Non-Hybrid Technician

Most of the country is, or soon will be, in the middle of another A/C service season. But did you know that A/C season for most hybrids is an all-year thing? That’s because many models rely on the A/C system to keep the High Voltage battery cool. Without proper temperature control, the battery can suffer premature failure – an expensive repair option when compared to the cost of keeping the A/C working properly! And you needn’t be a fully certified hybrid tech (but it helps!) to work on these systems. In this webinar, Motor Age’s Pete Meier and TST’s G. Jerry Truglia will show you the fundamentals of hybrid technologies including an overview of heat exchangers, as well as the particulars of safely and properly servicing hybrid air conditioning systems.”

NOTE: THIS WILL BE A RECORDED VIDEO WITH LIVE Q/A SESSION MONITORED BY PETE AND G. A HANDOUT WILL BE PROVIDED IN PDF FORMAT.

Pete Meier has been in the automotive aftermarket for 50 years, starting as a service station attendant while in high school. He’s earned ASE Master Automotive certification, has wrenched on just about everything that runs on gasoline, taught in both private and public vocational schools, trained technicians at regional and national events, and served as the technical editor for Motor Age magazine and later as the EBM Director of Digital Content. During his tenure at Motor Age, he led the publication into the Internet age and was the first to bring an industry trade publication to social media and created the Motor Age YouTube channel, now with over 109,000 subscribers.
