A guide to essential theory and practice for all car electrical and electronic systems. Covers charging and starting systems, batteries, instrument displays, lighting and signalling systems. Also includes engine management and emission control systems, dynamic safety systems such as traction control and ABS, and emerging technologies such as multiplex wiring.

This book has been written for those requiring an understanding of electrical and electronic equipment in the modern automobile.
No prior electrical knowledge has been assumed and relevant fundamentals are covered in the first chapter.
All explanations are based on first principles for which there is no substitute; with a firm mental picture of electrical and electronic principles the reader may progress to the chapters on present day advanced technical equipment.
Specific details of any particular type of vehicle are given only by way of illustration and example.
While it is hoped that up-to-date practice is adequately described, older equipment is also dealt with, being found in millions of vehicles still on the road.
