Review #1

Automotive Electrical Systems Troubleshooting and repair basics

Consider the book to be very confusing, as within the first ten pages found three significant mistakes. Only glanced throught the remaining sections because didn't want to get more confused or misled. Appears to be very poorly edited or proof read. Would not recommend it for a serious information source, unless you are already knowledgeable.




Review #2

Inaccurate & Unorganized

On page 10, a fundamental formula is incorrect.
(60 + 60) / (60 * 60) does not equal 30.
Why does and electrical book have a chapter on Coolant systems discussing pressure released radiator caps? The end of coolant chapter introduces you to electrical testing tools.
The author claims this organization was "by design" -- quite a poor design. This book has more problems than a calculus book.




Review #3

Information on electrical systems, Great!

If you want to learn more about how to trouble shoot automotive electronics, this is the book for you. Although I'm an electrical engineer, this book is just a laugh away, for a basic consumer, this book could prove valuable!

From the basics of how to use the Digital Multimeter, to using an oscilloscope, you can't go wrong with this book!

This book is geared to the un-experienced user.
