Australian automotive technicians will have an opportunity to ramp up their diagnostic skills at the 2024 Australian Auto Aftermarket Expo, thanks to two of the world’s foremost diagnostic experts.
The Expo will host Danny Versluis, aka ‘Diagnose Dan’ and Sean Tipping for a new, in-depth Technical Training Program specifically designed to ensure technicians stay ahead of the curve.
Tipping and Versluis will bring a wealth of knowledge to share with technicians given their respective skill sets and experience.
The new Technical Training Program will run across four days, beginning Wednesday April 10, a day before the official opening of the Expo on Thursday April 11.
Diagnose Dan is an automotive diagnostic expert based out of the Netherlands, commonly known for his popular ‘Diagnose Dan’ YouTube channel, and the Diagnose Dan Technical Support Base, one of Europe’s largest technical help desks.
Dan’s exclusive Expo sessions will cover AdBlue & diesel aftertreatment diagnostics, LIN bus diagnostics, EV diagnostics challenges, thermal management mastery and network troubleshooting.
“I can’t wait to attend the Expo with my colleague Martin Møller. Our ‘keep it simple’ approach helps technicians better understand systems that can look quite intimidating. We know exactly what workshops are struggling with and our training focuses on providing straight forward solutions,” Versluis says.
U.S based Sean Tipping has 18 years’ experience in the industry as a full-time technician, instructor and as owner of a mobile diagnostic and programming business. He is also the voice of the popular ‘Automotive Diagnostic Podcast’ when he is not working and teaching.
Tipping’s exclusive Expo sessions will cover circuit analysis, parasitic draws, network diagnostics and how to condemn a control module.
“I’m excited to be heading to Australia for the first time. I’m ready to share my expertise on electrical and diagnostic procedures. It’s a fantastic opportunity, and I’m grateful for the chance to contribute in a new setting,” Tipping says.
“Dan and Sean were chosen for their expertise and profile in the industry, and we are honoured to have them headline our most comprehensive training and education program yet,” Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association chief executive Stuart Charity says.
The new Auto Aftermarket Expo Technical Training Program will be a valuable add-on opportunity to attendees who want to supercharge their knowledge over and above the fantastic free education opportunities that will be on offer during an action packed event in Melbourne next year.
Co-located with the Collison Repair Expo (CRE), the AAAExpo is the nation’s only comprehensive exhibition for Australia’s $25B aftermarket industry. In addition to incredible training, the world-class event will feature over 400 of the country’s leading companies, display the latest and greatest, tools, technology and products across over 21,000sqm of floor space.
Combined with a dedicated Expo Electrified Zone, ADAS Technology Zone, 4WD Innovation Zone plus interactive displays, a networking event and much more, the Expo will be an unmissable industry experience.
The Expo will be held from April 11 to 13, 2024 at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre (MCEC), with the Technical Training Program starting a day earlier on Wednesday 10th April.
