ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS EXPLAINED

 

Electrical systems are becoming more and more important in today’s computer controlled vehicles. At K.L.i. Auto Electricians Ltd we find ourselves leading the way in the diagnosis of electrical circuits and computer controlled systems. Many local auto repair shops bring vehicles to us for our expertise and assistance in electrical diagnosis and repair. The complexity of these systems can be visualized in wiring diagrams. Below is a wiring diagram from a 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser (Fig A.) Each line indicates a wire. In (Fig B.) Imagine then taking each straight line (wire in figure a.) and accessing testing each one individual to identify an issue and repair it. Our many years and expertise in electrical diagnosis means a cost savings to our clients as we have either seen your electrical concern before or will be able to find and repair it quickly and correctly.

Types of On Board Diagnostics:

An electrical circuit can be found in every part of a modern car. Today manufacturers are using Computer Area Network Systems or CAN systems to control vehicles. To visualize the complexity of these CAN Networks think of separate computers for your heated seats, power windows, radio, gps, transmission, computer controlled engine components etc… all connected and talking to each other. A modern car even has electrical circuits in the tires monitoring tire pressures at millisecond intervals. Our Technicians are experts at electrical diagnosis on CAN (computer area network), OBDII (On Board Diagnostic 2), OBDI (On Board Diagnostic 1), Hybrid Drive Systems (HDS) and all 12 and24 volt electrical systems.
