Summary
I've spent 4 month working as a caravan mechanic inspecting and replacing any and all parts that are to do with brakes, suspension and tires. I was also diagnosing and repairing any and all problems with the wiring of 7 pin and 12 pin trailer plugs before stepping it up to working on truck and trailer brakes.
I now work on relining brake shoes and milling drums for heavy vehicle trailers
I was undergoing Certificate III in Light Vehicle Mechanical Technology with all my own tools required to do basic mechanical repair.
