Vehicle Electronics
Across
- 3. Devices that monitor operating conditions and convert physical parameters into electrical signals for the ECU or instrument cluster.
- 5. Essential lighting components that receive power via the electrical system for safety and visibility.
- 6. The network of wires and cables, carrying power and signals throughout the vehicle.
- 7. Motor Draws power from the battery to crank the engine and get it running.
- 8. Stores electrical energy and provides the initial power to start the engine
- 9. An electric pump that draws fuel from the tank and supplies it to the engine's fuel injectors.
- 10. Act as safety devices, designed to blow and break the circuit if there is an overcurrent, protecting components from damage.
Down
- 1. Use a low-power signal to control a high-power circuit, often used for components like headlights or the horn.
- 2. Generates electricity while the engine is running to power the vehicle's electrical systems and recharge the battery.
- 4. Manual or automatic mechanisms that open and close circuits to control power flow to different systems.
- 7. Ignite the air-fuel mixture in the cylinders to create the combustion necessary for the engine to run.
- 11. Often referred to as onboard computers, these modules manage various vehicle functions like engine performance, transmission, and braking systems.
