This trainer is designed to give students a basic
knowledge of Automotive Electrical Circuits. It is an
essential for any automotive technician to have a solid understanding in the
theory in order to be able to develop his troubleshooting and repair skills.
The trainer is neatly laid out to represent the
typical layout automobile and electric circuit wiring diagrams.
The trainer board allows for experimentation on the basic theory of 12
VDC electrical power, automotive wiring and system applications.
The development of troubleshooting skills is built into the learning
programs.
This trainer comes with a very comprehensive manual
with relevant exercises. It starts with the basics about 12
VDC power and thoroughly covers the characteristics and relationships of Volts,
Amps and Ohms. Properties and characteristics of Key circuit
types are covered in detail with many relevant exercises for series circuits,
parallel circuits and series-parallel circuits. Next the
fundamental use of diagnostic meters is covered such as how to use a Voltmeter,
Ammeter, Ohmmeter, Testing pen and continuity tester.
Exercises are given on how to detect common faults
in order to build troubleshooting skills; these include open circuit, high
resistance, short to ground and short to voltage. After this
very good grounding in the basic theory with practice exercises, the courseware
then moves on to explore common types of automotive circuits and wiring
connections.
Detailed experiments included are: Cover Trunk
release Circuit, Solenoids, Horn Circuit, Relays, Back-up Lamp Circuit, various
types of Switches, Fail Light Circuit, Brake Light Circuit, Light Bulbs, Starter
Motor Circuit, DC Motors, Turn Signal Circuit, Flashers, Ignition Key Circuit,
Warning Light Circuits, Electric Cooling Fan Circuit, Heater Blower Circuit,
Headlight Circuit and the Domelight Circuit.
Troubleshooting exercises are built into each of the
learning activities so that the student not only understands the theory but also
has a practical skill in locating faults and problems. For
many of the automotive circuit exercises an additional “On-Car” worksheet is
provided so the student may be guided through learning activities on a real
vehicle that will strengthen and reinforce the laboratory exercises.
