Most of the country is, or soon will be, in the middle of another A/C service season. But did you know that A/C season for most hybrids is an all-year thing?

That’s because many models rely on the A/C system to keep the High Voltage battery cool. Without proper temperature control, the battery can suffer premature failure – an expensive repair option when compared to the cost of keeping the A/C working properly! And you needn’t be a fully certified hybrid tech (but it helps!) to work on these systems.

In this webinar, Motor Age’s Pete Meier and TST’s G. Jerry Truglia will show you the fundamentals of hybrid technologies including an overview of heat exchangers, as well as the particulars of safely and properly servicing hybrid air conditioning systems.”
