Session 4 : Service Lights

I walk in today to find Edmund working on a car that's on the alignment lift. I asked him what he was doing and told me that he was aligning the car. Then he pulled out some sort of meter, I asked him what it was and he said it was to reset the car's maintenance light to off.
A few more cars came in and he explained lifting points to me. These are specific points under the car where the car must be lifted in order to lift safely. When you use a lift, it must be followed by jack stands under those points, because jack stands can hold a lot longer than the actual jack lift.
Later another car came in and we were fixing it up, the alternator was broken so we ordered a new one, but the new alternator was wrong. this showed that parts can always be ordered wrong and it stalls the job.
When we lowered the car off the lift i was told to be very careful and always check for improper things when lowering it, like unevenness or a loose part.
