Save time and money with this state-of-the-art guide to the latest, most advanced diagnostic equipment and techniques. "Ed Sherman is one of America's great teachers and communicators of marine technology." (Tim Murphy, former executive editor, Cruising World). Whether you are a marine electronics professional or a boatowner, Advanced Marine Electrics and Electronics Troubleshooting helps you understand the new, more powerful methods of troubleshooting marine electrical and electronic systems. A modern boat's sophisticated installations and networked electronics can stretch the traditional diagnostic methods, based on trouble lights and multimeters, past their useful limits. This book will show you how to: use microprocessor-based diagnostic tools and techniques from the automotive and communications sectors, adapted for boats for the first time; diagnose the most difficult AC and DC problems; protect communications and navigation electronics from interference and lightning; and seek out and eliminate stray-current sources and galvanic corrosion.
