This unique handbook assumes no starting knowledge of car electrical and electronics systems. It begins with simple circuits and finishes with complex electronic systems that include engine management, transmission control and stability control systems. If you want to diagnose a simple alternator charging or headlight problem, this book is for you. But if you also want to fix complex electronic systems using On-Board Diagnostics, a multimeter or oscilloscope, this book also shows you how to do that. Is it best to use a series or parallel circuit when adding a horn? How do you use a multimeter to check a coolant temperature sensor against its specs? How can you add an electronic timer that will keep your headlights on as you walk to your door? When should you buy an oscilloscope – and how complex an instrument do you really need? The author has been writing about car electronic systems for over 25 years. He is also an experienced and proficient car modifier who has performed numerous electronic modifications and upgrades to his own cars, including world-first modifications. If you want a practical, hands-on book that demystifies and explains car electrical and electronic systems, this is the book for you.

Overall Good
Very good book to start understanding the electronics of a car. However if you don't know absolutely nothing about electronics, the start is "pretty" brutal and fast. I'm using this book together with Internet to obtain some extra info. Overall I strongly recommend this book!

Great addition to my technical library. Author is a respected automobile electronic authority. Glad to have his expertise, could have gone a little deeper into waveform analysis and examples, but all in all an informative based book to have.

383 Pages ??? Sorry...no
Firstly...Listing this publication as 383 pages is absurd. There are “pages” (many of them) that detail a single component in schematic form. Some of the images are inexplicably cropped off??? Which is a shame because some of the detail is respectable. If you are thinking of purchasing this “book” just realize the page count is grossly misleading with respect to content volume.

Best book now available on automotive electronic systems.
This is unquestionably the number one book on car electronics available today. It covers the entire topic from basic electrical knowledge to the operation of the CAN buss and ECU in good enough detail that the reader gains a firm understanding of each topic. Included are basic elements of car electricity, switches and relays, meters, oscilloscopes electronic components, engine management etc. The writing is clear and detailed with lots of excellent diagrams. It includes an index and other supplementary information. The chapter on engine management is particularly well done and puts into a single reference the many complex elements required for a good understanding of the subject.
