Description: For technicians who are interested in increasing their diagnostic effectiveness on today's vehicle electronic systems, this book is an absolute "must"! Computerized Engine Controls, 7E tackles both domestic and import engine control systems to help with the understanding of underlying automotive operating principles and concepts needed to diagnose and repair any electronic system on any vehicle. Thoroughly updated to offer insight into the latest technological advances found on today's roads and highways, the 7th Edition examines such cutting-edge topics as hybrid and fuel cell vehicles, GM's 42-volt system, hexadecimal conversion and OBD II, multiplexing, and more. Product Benefits: - completely updated to identify which systems are OBD II compliant, including information concerning the phasing in of the CAN system by the 2008 model year
- proven-effective diagnostic approaches and troubleshooting techniques allow quick identification of problem areas in computerized engine control systems
- coverage also provides a solid foundation for expansion into light duty/gasoline or heavy duty/diesel applications
- offers information that can be useful when working with other electronic systems that are not engine-related
- valuable appendices help readers transform theory from the book's pages into hands-on diagnostic approaches for use on modern vehicles
