Modern Starting and Charging Systems Learning System
Explore how modern vehicles start, generate electrical power, and manage increasingly complex starting and charging functions. The Modern Starting and Charging Systems Learning System (720-02) gives students hands-on experience with conventional and advanced systems, automatic stop-start technology, CAN Bus communication, electrical measurement, and fault diagnosis.
The Modern Starting and Charging Systems learning system (720-02) from LJ Create is an introduction to starting and charging systems found in modern vehicles. Students investigate conventional and advanced systems while building their understanding of the components, circuits, sensors, actuators, and electronic signals involved in vehicle operation.
This automotive board-learning system also introduces students to CAN Bus communication and automatic stop-start systems. Using an onboard vehicle mimic, accessible ECU pinouts, and diagnostic equipment, students can perform system measurements, analyze CAN signals, and diagnose eight different starting and charging faults.
