Training course on diagnostics and repair of Tesla electric vehicles
What you will learn
- Connecting the LOKI scanner to various Tesla models (Model S/X/3/Y)
- Reading and interpreting DTCs and live data from control units
- Calibrating and reconfiguring ECUs (e.g., radar, Autopilot)
- Programming vehicle keys
- Editing Tesla vehicle configuration
This course is designed for professionals aiming to master modern methods of diagnosing and repairing Tesla vehicles. It focuses on working with the LOKI diagnostic scanner, which enables comprehensive interaction with Tesla vehicles — from reading fault codes to key programming and configuration editing.
The course consists of two parts:
Day 1. Covers foundational knowledge of Tesla electric vehicle construction. Special attention is given to the features of both low-voltage and high-voltage systems. Common faults and troubleshooting methods are explored. The logic of key systems, including the Media Control Unit (MCU), is explained. Students are introduced to the LOKI interface and its functions. Theoretical content is supported by presentations, wiring diagrams, and live demonstrations.
Day 2. Consolidates theoretical knowledge through hands-on work with an actual Tesla vehicle and LOKI diagnostic equipment. Activities include vehicle connection, crash reset, ECU adaptation, key programming, parameter calibration, demonstration of common cases, and in-depth study of LOKI’s advanced features.
