ALC 1.2 Auxiliary Lighting Trainer

This system is used to cover the topics involving auxiliary headlights and signalling systems – the latter is obligatory in every vehicle and thus enjoys special consideration in training programs. What is of interest here is that control of these components can vary depending on the vehicle. For that reason, instructors can only profit from a system that allows them to become familiar with different versions of these right there in the classroom.

Power Supply

Power Supply, 13.5 V, 45 A

The "Power supply" module is part of ´various training systems including the "Modular engine management" system. It provides power to various components in a similar to the way they are supplied in practice in a real engine by means of a 12 V battery. The module employs a 600 watt power unit which can supply a maximum current of 45 A at 13.5 V between its screw terminals. To protect the training system, a maximum current of 30 A can be tapped via the 4-mm safety sockets. This protective function is implemented by electronic monitoring of the 4mm safety sockets. Thanks to the high-resolution printing on the front panel, the module can immediately be identified as a typical car battery.

Technical highlights:

• Stable on-board network voltage of 13.5 volts
• Automatic cut-out without fuses
• Short-circuit protection
• Typical appearance of a vehicle battery thanks to high-resolution printed image of a starter battery
• Maximum current: 45 A

Technical details:

• Operating voltage: 90-264 V AC (47-63 Hz)

Interactive Lab Assistant: Automotive Lighting

The CarTrain course "Lighting for cars and commercial vehicles" represents the perfect supplement to the “Vehicle lighting” set. It explains in detail how the system is put into operation along with all the essential theoretical background regarding lighting in cars and commercial vehicles. Trainees learn how to work with the circuit diagrams for a lighting system and how to use them logically and efficiently as part of a maintenance or diagnostic procedure. Apart from putting a lighting system into operation, various diagnostic skills for locating problems are learned and various measurements are made on the system itself. Each section is concluded by a test of knowledge.
