Description

This course explains everything about the starting system operation and wiring diagrams analysis. Every Do-It-Yourselfer, Automotive students, Mechanics and Auto Electricians can use the information provided in this course.

We explain all sorts of starting system circuits in this course step-by-step. So, we start from the basic of starting circuit and operation, then we go for more diagrams.

We explain the real starting system wiring diagrams to give you a real experience. After analyzing each diagram, we do the diagnosis on that specific car as well.

We explain the starting system wiring diagrams on a Toyota, Ford, Kia & Hyundai. So you will see many different examples.

We also explain how to test all relevant components including Starter Solenoid, Starter Relays, Inhibitor Switch (Park/Neutral Switch) and more.

While this course focuses on starting system, it can also be very helpful to understand and analyze the wiring diagrams for other electrical circuits too.

This course offers a very practical approach to starting system diagnosis and how to use the wiring diagrams. So, we use the wiring diagram and real cars to achieve that goal. You can also download all wiring diagrams that we use in this course and some more to practice more and learn more.
