This comprehensive textbook covers the theory of operation, diagnostics, and repair procedures for each system and sub-system of late model domestic and imported automobiles and light trucks. The new edition is published in full-color for the first time, including all new step-by-step photo sequences to help users visualize and identify common repair procedures. An emphasis is placed upon providing the best possible coverage of key topics that virtually all automotive students must know--electricity-electronics, engine performance, steering and suspension, and brakes. "Hot Topics" such as the use of diagnostic equipment (including lab scopes), OBD II, antilock braking systems, passive restraint systems, and many others have been expanded and updated.
