I do not post as regular as I should, shops as busy as anyone could ask for most days. I did want to share this. Hybrid f150 10speed transmission. The problem was very non typical of the unit, and specifically the 10 speeds in general. Using traditional techniques it became clear the torque converter was in the process of coming apart. This is very unusual for the hybrids. I tried to upload the full video with diag and showing high voltage energize procedures, but got an error. Just always remember. Be safe with high voltage systems, because voltage and amperage don't care if your squishy..they WILL find a ground if you don't respect them.

I recently wrote an article covering the impact of the instructor shortage on the automotive and diesel industry and wanted to share. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what we can do as an industry to help with the shortage of educators! *** Navigating the Crisis: The Impact of the Instructor Shortage on the Automotive & Diesel Industry The education system in the United States is facing a brutal crisis as schools grapple with a severe shortage of teachers. According to recent studies, 9 in 10 public schools struggled to hire instructors for the current school year. Unfortunately, career and technical education (CTE), automotive, and diesel programs are no exception. According to the U.S. Department of Education, 28 states and territories have reported CTE teacher shortages in 2023-24. On top of that, on average, CTE teachers are older than the broader public teacher workforce, with 12.7% of them aged 60 or older, compared to 7.9% overall. Between the struggle to hire CTE instructors combined with the aging population of existing instructors, the outlook for the instructor shortage is not good. This is not just a staffing problem; it’s a crisis that could have far-reaching consequences for educators, students, and the automotive and diesel industry. In this article, we will dive into the causes of the instructor shortage, explore its impact on the automotive and diesel industry, and discuss ways in which shops and dealerships can help lessen the impact.

Technician
Problem is that many techs leave because they are burnt out on what they've done for many years and just want out. The ones who are good are paid very well and aren't willing to take a big pay cut to teach. The mentality hasn't changed for decades, many saying they'd not want their kids to do it, so having those techs go teach has no interest to them If you want a good example, go here on this recent post and read comments from techs. https://youtu.be/fZmWk-vdohs?si=j6zwFVPgLwT-XeV- (edited)
