How a car alarm works
What a car alarm is made of, what the control unit “hears” on its inputs and controls on its outputs, how a two-way fob differs from a one-way fob, and what a GSM module adds.
9 min · 4 questionsfreeChoosing a system for the car and the job
How an analog hookup differs from a CAN connection, how to check a car against the maker’s compatibility list, when GSM and remote start are needed, and how to explain the price difference to a customer.
10 min · 4 questionsfreeTools, workstation and safety
What tools an installer needs, how to prepare the car and the workstation, when to disconnect the battery terminal, why airbag harnesses are left alone, and why you take “before” photos.
9 min · 4 questionsfreeUnit power and ground
Where to take constant +12 V and the ignition positive, where to put the fuse and how to make the ground so the alarm doesn’t reset or give false alarms.
9 min · 4 questionsfreeDoor, hood and trunk pin switches
What pin switches there are, how to find their wire by measuring and tell a ground-side switch from a positive-side one, where to mount a hood pin switch and when you need isolation diodes.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseTurn signals and light flash
How the alarm flashes the lights: connecting to the bulb wires through diodes, to the hazard button or over CAN, how to work out channel current and what LED bulbs change.

Central locking: control types and wiring
How to tell by measuring what controls the central locking — negative, positive, reversing polarity, pneumatics or CAN — and wire the alarm through relays with the right pulse length.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseThe CAN bus during alarm installation
What the CAN module reads and controls, where to find the CAN-H and CAN-L pair, how to check it by measuring, connect without cutting the bus and make sure the bus works.
10 min · 4 questionsfull courseEngine kill
How an engine kill on a normally closed relay differs from one on a normally open relay, which circuits are interrupted, why the kill must never trigger while driving, and how to make it reliable and hidden.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseShock, tilt and interior motion sensors
How shock, tilt and interior motion sensors work and where they go, how to set the two sensitivity zones, where false alarms come from, and when the sensors are bypassed while the car is armed.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseSiren, antenna and GSM module
Where to put the siren and the fob antenna, why the fob reaches less far than the box says, and what the GSM module needs to stay connected.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseWire routing and installation
How to join wires with solder instead of twisting them, run the harness along the factory one away from moving and hot parts, hide the unit, and reassemble the interior so nothing rattles.
10 min · 4 questionsfull courseProgramming and testing
How to learn the fobs and the phone, set the system up for the car and the customer, test every function from a checklist and measure the key-off current with the alarm.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseHanding the car over to the customer
How to teach the customer to use the system, show emergency disarming, do the paperwork and warranty, keep installation photos and be honest about battery drain during long parking.
9 min · 4 questionsfull courseFaults in an installed alarm
How to track it down when the system won’t arm, gives false alarms, drains the battery, won’t operate the locks, barely hears the fob, or the engine kill stops the car from starting.

Lessons 1–4 are free. Lessons 5–15 unlock after a one-time payment of 19 990 ₸, with lifetime access. Launch price: 9 990 ₸ for the first 20 buyers.
Do I need experience?
The course goes step by step, from how an alarm works to handing the car over and troubleshooting. Working with wiring takes a multimeter — that’s covered in the free lessons of the “For future auto electricians” course.
How do I pay?
Message Oleg on WhatsApp — he will send you the Kaspi number. After payment Oleg sends an access code: enter it in the app at lesson 5. One code works on three phones. Payment is official, via a sole proprietorship; companies can pay by invoice.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. After payment the app unlocks a final test: 20 questions covering all lessons, and you need at least 16 correct answers for the certificate. The certificate of completion can be verified by its number. It is not a state-recognised diploma: this is a self-study course.
Does it work offline?
Yes: in the Android app, lessons open without the internet. You need a connection once, to enter the access code.
Does it work on iPhone?
Yes: open help.avtoelektrik-pro.kz in Safari and add the icon to your Home Screen. There is an app for Android.
