This system is ideally suited for schools and training centers that focus on teaching the principles of automotive lighting and signaling systems, including their operation, troubleshooting, and diagnostic techniques.

Main Features

● Real Components Utilizes genuine elements of the vehicle lighting and light signaling system, including headlights, taillights, dashboard lights, and switches.

● Interactive Learning Provides terminals for conducting direct electrical measurements (resistance, voltage, current, frequency) in the circuits of the vehicle under study.

● Fault Introduction and Diagnosis Allows instructors to introduce 15 faults into the system, enabling students to practice diagnosing and resolving issues using professional diagnostic equipment.

● Robust Design The teaching board panel is made of durable aluminum-plastic material, resistant to impact, pollution, fire, and moisture, with a specially treated surface for long-lasting use.

● Safe Operation Operates on a standard 220V AC power supply, which is converted into a stable 12V DC power supply via internal circuit transformation, eliminating the need for a battery.

Functional Characteristics

Realistic Demonstration Activating the light switch simulates the actual working process of the automotive exterior lighting system, including headlights, taillights, emergency alarms, and rear fog lights.

Circuit Analysis The panel features a non-fading color-coded circuit diagram, allowing students to visually compare the schematic with real components and analyze the working principles of the lighting system.
