Customer Reviews

An excellant primer for anyone working on the electical system of a car.

This book is extremly well written. The explainations are simple and correct. I have begun to understand the logic of electrical circuits and their design purpose. The book has helped me modify my project car to suit my purposes without damaging the car itself! Not easy to do these days.

yea, electrical info it's in there...

tell you what if you wanna learn about electricity not just automotive but electricity in general this is your book. It helps to lay a great foundation. I already knew this stuff but it was a great refresher, as well as a excellent info source for automotive applications. I truely feel this was money well spent.

Excellent text for DIY or those wanting background

I am in process of rewiring a 70s model car and this book is extremely helpful. Good fundamental explanation of electronics and automotive application. Written at a level that is easily understood without any background in the material. Skip the foundational material and go straight to the application if you like but I found the background key to understanding some of my rewiring problems.Short book, well illustrated, easy to understand and very affordable.

great basic and beyond

Covers the fundamentals for the first timer and for the veteran electical troubleshooter. Well planned and thought out. Really makes you stop and plan your work. Presents different approaches to problems and what may work best for you. A must have if you are building a kit car or restoring a car. Provides names o companies that you can purchase supplies to do it yourself. Dont try it without first reading this book!!!!!
