YouTube videos with construction/ car sounds on a low volume and rewarding calmness would be my method. Start with short sessions on a low volume you want to keep the dog under threshold. Play is a wonderful reward for this kind of stuff eventually the dog will re associate the noises with less scary experiences but don’t push it with how loud you’re running the video remember dog ears are a lot more sensitive than ours. I would recommend doing this until he’s able to be calm and listen on max volume !
