Participants will be given a random vehicle diagnostic problem and challenged to identify it with the Encore. Once identified, technicians must provide a recommended course of action to complete the challenge. The three fastest times nationwide will win the Ultimate Diagnostics for Life prize.
The tour started at Automechanika Chicago in April. At more than 100 locations nationwide, technicians competed in the Challenge for the opportunity to win an Encore kit at select locations or cash prizes.
The Technician Challenge will take place during the SEMA Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center from Tuesday, November 3 to Friday, November 6 at booth 16007 in Westgate Hall.
Technicians can register for the challenge by visiting www.OTCTools.com/technician-challenge and selecting a location.
Along with the Diagnostic Challenge, OTC field training specialists (FTS) will provide hands-on training to explore the Encore’s capabilities. With 30 years of vehicle coverage and 30-million verified fixes by year, make and model, the Encore helps technicians diagnose and fix faster. Integrated Code-Assist™ and exclusive Identifix assets pull together more of what the technician needs, when they need it, on-tool.
The SEMA Show is an automotive specialty products trade event. Annually the show draws the industry’s most skilled, innovative people and products into one place: the Las Vegas Convention Center. The Diagnostics Challenge will be hosted at booth 16007 in Westgate Hall during the SEMA Show.
