Michael Carter

Truck Technology Writer

Michael Carter specializes in the components of Volvo trucks, such as engine control systems, ECU (Engine Control Units) programming, and onboard communication systems; he explains what programs and systems mean to the behavior of the engine, and what software peripheral updates can mean as far as routine maintenance and trouble shooting are concerned. Carter’s writings have helped truck owners and do-it-yourself repair shops understand concepts that were once reserved for the manufacturer’s service centers.
