Overview

For courses in Automatic Transmissions - Principles, Theory or Service This book is part of the Pearson Automotive Professional Technician Series. Automatic Transmissions and Transaxles, 7th Edition provides a complete, state-of-the-art source on the operating principles as well as the service and repair procedures for modern automatic transmission transaxles, complete with the practical skills that students must master to be successful in the industry. The text focuses on the generic theory underlying the operation, diagnosis, and repair of the units and subassemblies found in the many makes and types of vehicles students are likely to encounter in their work. Formatted to appeal to today's technical trade students, Halderman uses helpful tips and visuals to bring concepts to life and guide students through the procedures. To keep your course current, all of the content is correlated to the latest NATEF tasks and ASE areas, and important changes to this edition include expanded material on transmission/transaxle hydraulic systems, now split into to three separate chapters for easier learning; over 50 new full-colour line drawings and photos to bring the content alive; new case studies added to selected chapters; the addition of global electrical symbols to Chapter 8; and a new format for describing systems and components that makes learning complex systems easier. All terms used in this edition adhere to the SAE J1930 standard.
