The ZF 8HP has proven itself, for more than a decade, that it is among the best transmissions ever produced. The first models of the 8HP, and subsequent models, have all pushed the limits of transmission efficiency. As ZF continues to improve the 8HP, adding a Plug-In Hybrid version of the transmission was the next logical step. Become familiar with the latest technology as we cover hybrid transmission basics, torque flow, basic high voltage concepts and a hands-on disassembly of the 8P75H transmission and mechatronic.

 After completing this training, the participant will be able to: 

• Describe the different levels of hybrid technology
• Identify the types of ZF hybrid transmissions
• Define the classification of a high voltage system
• Identify the internal safety features of hybrid systems
• Explain how to verify zero potential of a high voltage system
• Describe procedure to disconnect high voltage systems on BMW and Audi
• Identify the characteristics of 2 speed electric motors
• Explain how to disassemble a ZF 8P75 transmission
• Describe the disassembly process of the 875H mechatronic
• Identify updates within the latest ZF transmissions
• Explain common failures of the units
• Describe common diagnostics of the ZF hybrid units
