We are thrilled to highlight one of our own, Scott Baumfalk, who recently showcased his extensive expertise at the prestigious Collision Industry Conference (CIC). As one of our esteemed shop foremen, Scott has consistently demonstrated an exceptional understanding of both internal combustion engines and the intricacies of electric and hybrid vehicle systems.
At the CIC, Scott was invited to speak on a topic that has become increasingly vital in our industry: the maintenance and repair of low voltage systems in electric and hybrid vehicles. His presentation, which was met with resounding praise, delved into the crucial aspects of properly servicing and diagnosing these advanced vehicles, whether in a repair shop or a body shop setting.
Scott’s profound knowledge was evident as he expertly navigated through the complexities of 48-volt maintenance systems. He emphasized the importance of maintaining the 12-volt battery with a suitable charger or isolating the 12-volt system during collision repairs to prevent depletion and potential fault codes. Scott’s practical insights, born from years of hands-on experience, provided invaluable guidance to his peers, enhancing their understanding of the delicate balance required in handling electric and hybrid vehicles.
The feedback from the conference attendees was overwhelmingly positive. Scott was lauded not only for his deep technical knowledge, but also for his ability to translate that knowledge into practical applications that can be used daily in the shop. His approachable manner and willingness to share his expertise have made him a respected figure in the automotive repair community.
Here at Automotive Imports, we are incredibly proud of Scott Baumfalk. His dedication to continuous learning and his passion for the industry set a benchmark for all of us. Scott’s contributions not only elevate our team but also significantly impact the broader collision repair industry. We are honored to have Scott as a part of our team and look forward to many more of his insightful contributions and achievements.
