The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has just approved the Advanced Clean Cars Ⅱ regulations. The Advanced Clean Cars Ⅱ regulations are in response to Governor Gavin Newsom's executive order requiring that all new cars sold in California be zero-emission by 2035. CARB adopted the Advanced Clean Cars I regulations in 2012.The Advanced Clean Cars Ⅱ regulations include a variety of initiatives to set California on the path to zero-emissions by 2035. Most notably for independent repair shops, the Clean Car regulations require the same access and disclosure for zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) throughout the California Service Information Regulation. This means that independent repair shops in California will be required to have access to the same service information and repair procedures from OEMs as they have with current internal combustion engine vehicles.Additionally, the Advanced Clean Cars Ⅱ regulations require standardized tooling to reprogram electronic control units (ECUs) and require standardization for some vehicle tool data. The regulations also require zero-emission vehicles to have a standardized data connecter (such as an OBD-Ⅱ port) and use standardized communication protocols.Under these regulations, OEMs will be required to make powertrain service and repair information for all zero-emission vehicles available to independent technicians. Powertrain includes all components and systems related to refueling and propulsion. This mimics what is already done for conventional vehicles for service and repair information under CCR 1969. |
