Josh Weaver

Josh has always been driven to learn new techniques to become a better technician, traveling around the USA to absorb all the training he could from the best instructors and professionals in the country. His focus now is on applying what he learned by sharing his knowledge both in the shop and in the training classroom.

Josh earned an associate degree in applied science in Automotive Technology in a program backed by Chrysler and General Motors. Josh is a certified Pennsylvania emissions and safety inspector, and also holds certifications for EPA 609, ASE L1 and L3.

While in college he worked for a Ford dealership, rounding out his exposure to all of the domestic manufacturers. After receiving his degree, he earned his ASE and Master Technician certifications at a Kia dealership. He was the lead technician at the dealership, which allowed him to see some of the most difficult and challenging vehicle issues that came through the shop. This allowed Josh to hone his diagnostic skills and share that expertise with fellow technicians.

After being in the dealership for many years, Josh became the service manager for a six-bay independent service center, which owned a six-bay collision center as well. Running shops of this size allowed him to see many different drivability issues, along with many electrical and programming issues.

Josh’s passion for diagnostics led him to launch his own part-time mobile diagnostic business and develop and instruct some training classes for some of his local automotive technician association chapters. His goal is to help keep moving the industry forward and improving for the better, by helping technicians learn and grow.
