 Electrical Systems: Automotive Electrical Basics By John Delke

Electrical SystemsA lot of us without hesitation will completely disassemble an engine, transmission, or other intricate and precise mechanical device, repair it, and put it back together. But when it comes to why a lamp won’t light, or [multiple quote] “weird turn-signal, horn, name something” problems occur, a lot of us throw up hands in frustration. I hope this will help you to get an understanding of the elusive “Eddie Electron”, and his peculiar behavior. I’ll apologize in advance for being “too simplistic” but I write how I teach/explain. My descriptions will deal with DC circuitry, in negative ground situations.

Recharging Your Car's Air Conditioner with Refrigerant

What's the difference between a "top-off" and an "evacuation and recharge"? Why

My technician told me he could not locate the leak in my system

What about Using my own Parts?
