This book is not up to the standards of books published by CarTech. Chapter 3 is full of misinformation. No one who understands electrical systems would ever connect wires by twisting them. Electrical connections on automobiles should always be crimp connections and terminations. Soldering should only be used for connections to circuit boards and repairs to circuit boards. Scotchlok and T-Taps should never be used for any automobile connections. These examples show that the author does not have a good understanding of the practices used in the automotive industry.

This is a very good book. Full of really useful stuff you can actually use. Combine this book with the Tracy martin and jim horner books and there won’t be much you can’t do with a cars electrical system.

I have only read through the entire book once and I have already gained so much knowledge about wiring in cars. I will re read it through a couple more times to make sure that whatever info i gather stays in my head. But to sum it up, this book is awesome.
