Delphi: Security gateway training

Delphi Technologies Aftermarket is looking to remind technicians about the security gateway training it has added to the slate at the Delphi Technologies Academy.

The course is comprised up of a series of security gateway explanation videos. Successful participants who finish the course also have get 0.8 IMI CPD credits.

Phil Mitchell, Technical Services Manager, Delphi Technologies Aftermarket said: “Accessing a car’s onboard diagnostics port is becoming more challenging due to newer vehicles requiring secure protection from hackers. Manufacturers are using a master module sometimes called a security gateway (SGW) which communicates with all other ECUs in the vehicle.Special access needs to be acquired from the manufacturer in order to clear a fault code on a security gateway-equipped vehicle. “

He added: “The training takes viewers through the necessary steps to gain access to the vehicle’s security gateway and get customers back on the road. The how-to element shows the steps needed to acquire a security token which can then be used with older OBD tools, such as the Delphi Technologies DS150.
