How to use training modules
These Genisys training modules are to be followed along with your Genisys turned on as an interactive training class. To use these modules along with your Genisys, be sure to select the demo soft key when performing the vehicle data entry. The power point slide in the Genisys training module will tell you what action to take on your Genisys so that you may obtain a desired result. To follow along, at each page of the power point, push the requested button on your Genisys. The Genisys display will then change to reflect the next page of the power point training class.

• Driveability Diagnostics, OBD I & II
  Since the dawn of on-board diagnostics (OBD) in motor vehicles, the process of diagnosing driveability problems are the same as always, and very different, too. When OBD I evolved into OBD II in 1996, the electronic part of diagnosing driveability problems became a little easier. This is because the electronic network on OBD II vehicles became much more comprehensive and changed almost all mechanical functions that controlled the powertrain into electro/mechanical functions.
