Automotive electronics are electronic systems used in vehicles, including Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment, Jump Starters, Portable Power, Power Inverters, Air Compressors & Inflators, Neon Lights, and others. Every year vehicles are equipped with more and more safety, luxury, and convenience features, and most of them rely on electricity from the battery and charging system.

Electronic systems have become an increasingly large component of the cost of an automobile, Modern electric cars rely on power electronics for the main propulsion motor control, as well as managing the battery system. Watch any new car commercial and you'll see that more often than not, instead of touting traditional attributes like horsepower, handling or fuel mileage, the manufacturer hypes the vehicle's connectivity, navigation, entertainment, and other electronic capabilities. The OEMs know that today's customers want access to friends and family, information, and audio and video entertainment wherever they go, including their cars. But you don't have to go in debt for a new car to get great automotive electronics. With our huge selection of automotive electronics, your vehicle can equal or surpass the features in the latest new car and truck offerings, and we can supply you with these electronic parts at far less than you'd pay at electronics stores.

While some electrical components are convenience features, systems like wipers and lights are necessary for safe vehicle operation, and who would want to drive on a frigid day without a working heater! Each of these systems relies on the proper flow of electric power, so the windshield is properly cleared, you can see where you're going on a dark highway, and the blower fan spreads heat throughout the cabin on a cold winter's day. Although each of these systems has a different function, they are all basically the same in that each has a load in the form of a motor or bulb, a switch, and 12-volt power supply.

Although motors, bulbs, and switches are the stars of the electrical system, they are nothing without supporting players like wires and connectors that complete the circuits, and these parts can cause major problems. Corrosion in wires and connectors can cause excessive resistance, which reduces voltage to the load and results in a dim bulb or slow/non-working motor. Broken wires can cause an open and complete circuit failure. Worn wire insulation can cause a short to power, which can result in a load getting power when it's not wanted, such as a bulb staying on, or a short to ground, which can overload the circuit.
