Automotive Computer Controlled Systems

Explains the fundamental principles of engineering that lie behind the operation of vehicle electronic systems. This book gives steps to fault diagnosis and subsequent repair of the vehicle's electronic systems. It discusses electronics only within the context of the vehicle systems under consideration, and thus keeps theory to a minimum.

''Automotive Computer Controlled Systems'' explains the fundamental principles of engineering that lie behind the operation of vehicle electronic systems. Having obtained this knowledge, the reader will be able to make full use of the diagnostic equipment which is currently available. The book builds on the concepts contained in Vehicle Electronic Systems and Fault Diagnosis and gives clear steps to fault diagnosis and subsequent repair of the vehicle''s electronic systems. The author discusses electronics only within the context of the vehicle systems under consideration, and thus keeps theory to a minimum.
