AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING CIRCUIT

AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING CIRCUIT Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders

This trainer should be designed to teach students principles of lighting circuits used in modern vehicles through comprehensive practical activities. The activities include interior light circuits, brake (stop) circuit, reverse (backup) circuit, Hi/Lo beam circuit, hazard warning circuit, turn signal circuit, park and tail circuit, relay circuit, vanity light circuit. AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING CIRCUIT, AUTOMOTIVE LAB.

The unit should contains a circuit board with electrical and lights components, system diagrams, power supply, electrical test leads, and student experiment manual presented in hard copy and pdf format. PCB’s should be made from fiberglass, coated with epoxy to prevent corrosion and suitable for harsh environments. Labeled components with powder coated base.
