Automobile Electrical and Electronic Systems by Tom DentonNovember 13, 2000 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I found this quite a good book, in that it covers forthcoming technologies such as CANBUS and drive by wire very well and gives a good overview of current electrical technology used in the Automotive sector. It is not intended as "workshop manual style" book to aid in repair or diagnostics of electrical problems but to give the reader a thorough understanding of advanced automotive electrical systems. One criticism is that it is lacking circuit diagrams that students might find useful in understanding certain systems, but this is probably to make the book more readable to all.
