Automotive Wiring and Electrical Systems

Often, wiring and electrical work intimidates automotive do-it-yourselfers the most. It's not mechanical, and
therefore, it's unfamiliar territory. Electrons are invisible, and they can do unpredictable things in an untrained
enthusiast's eyes. Finally, there is an enthusiast's guide that takes the mysteries and misunderstandings out of
automotive electrical design, modification, diagnostics, and repair.
Automotive Wiring and Electrical Systems is the perfect book to unshroud the mysteries of automotive electrics and
electronic systems. The basics of electrical principles, including voltage, amperage, resistance, and Ohm's Law,
are revealed in clear and concise detail, so the enthusiast understands what these mean in the construction and
repair of automotive electrical circuits. All the tools and the proper equipment required for automotive electrical
tasks are covered. In addition, this in-depth guide explains how to perform more complex tasks, such as adding
new circuits, installing aftermarket electronics, repairing existing circuits, building your own wiring harness, and
troubleshooting. Author Tony Candela explains how to complete popular wiring projects, such as adding late-model
electronic accessories and convenience items to earlier-model cars, installing relays, designing and assembling
multi-function circuits and harnesses, and much more.

With this book in hand, you will be able to assemble, design, and build single- and multi-function circuits and
harnesses, troubleshoot and repair existing circuits, and install aftermarket systems and electronics. Automotive
Wiring and Electrical Systems is your essential guide for wiring a hot rod from scratch, modifying muscle car
electrical circuits for cooling fans and/or power windows, or adding a premium stereo and other conveniences to
modern performance cars. With 144 pages & 350 colour photos. SB.
