This is the 4th video ive watched trying to learn this s...stuff. i wish it were the first. Very well done.

[@ChuckCanuck]

I've begun watching this series to gain on unstranding on schematics to aid me while I restore a 1960's philco strereo. Thank you for creating this series. It has been extremely helpful and easy to follow.

Thanks it is a very useful class for dummies like me

[@abubakarisadiqueibrahim481]

I have been watching you for the past 2 yrs now. I fix car and only deal with mechanical side but lately i wanted to learn more and to become auto technician instead. With basic and simple teaching's like this you got me covered. Keep up the good work.

[@realfixesrealfast]

Glad it helped, thanks for your comments.

Hello sir, I've been watching all your videos they are all valuable. You enlightened all the question in my my mind as a technician. Although I am career mechanic with 53 years experience I learned a lot from you.keep up the good work may almighty god jehovah bless you.

I'm very impressed by how much compassion is put behind this, subscribed! Very kind to post this for us.

[@MackDoc]

I really enjoyed this and it was helpful. I showed this to a co worker and it helped get him on the same page as me while we were diagnosing an issue.

[@patbaptiste9510]

This video was extremely helpful to me because, I am currently a marine electrician who have worked on submarines and navy surface ships. I also worked as a copy machine technician and a nuclear instrumentation technician - submarines. I am about to switch career over to automobile electrical diagnostics. I do understand how electrical and electronic circuits work however, there seem to be different symbols in the automotive industry, so that's the part i'm really concerned about. I do have some experience on electric vehicles (transit buses) so I feel confident that my past experience in electrical and electronic troubleshooting will transfer over to the automotive field. I will be working strictly on Mercedes models beginning in January therefore is trying to get up to speed with the different symbols and color codes used in automotive schematics. This video has been extremely helpful as I said before therefore I will most certainly check out your other videos.

[@realfixesrealfast]

Thanks for your comments. Good luck

[@windywindy]

This is awesome I am a second year apprentice in Canada and having trouble with circuits and trying to wrap my head around it. Thanks for all the help

[@dmorley100]

Oh BTW. Love the new series on reading wiring diagrams. I agree with you. Seems like everybody I've trained or tried to train has a hard time with wiring diagrams.

[@johnthorp4546]

Well spoken,simplified explanation and a true instructor in your field!👍👊💪

[@epiphaknee]

Sharpie makes a nice 5 marker set in the respective colors. I can't wait until Duane tells us to go and purchase a PowerProbe! Great video and series!!

[@mikemackinnon2826]

Very well done. This lines up very close to how I learned and now instruct to read diagrams.

[@mbrad2669]

Didn't understand the map of Missouri analogy at first, but continued to watch and that's the best point of view I have been shown👍👍 I wish I was taught like this at the beginning of my military career...I've always seemed to over think and complicate things

[@T211K]

@@realfixesrealfast Yes, sir! I'll be there. I'm using your videos to improve my electrical side, as my job role mainly focuses on mechanical engineering. I hope to be half as experienced as you some day.

[@JosephineMcMullen]

Very helpful. Thanks for posting. I've been trying to figure out my dishwasher circuit diagram for a week. It's been driving me crazy. Now I am able to figure some things out.

[@realfixesrealfast]

glad it helped. Keep in mind, all electrical diagrams are simply a map however sometimes different systems use different symbols (signs). Automotive and dishwasher may have different symbols but the all work electrically the same.

[@Hurlburton]

Just watched it for the first time and as always will need to watch it a couple more times. So far really good.

[@zakirahmed583]

Great explanation of electrical circuits. Thanks heaps for sharing :)

[@realfixesrealfast]

You are welcome, thanks for your comments

[@igordem555]

Madness! I studied in Soviet Union electro-technical school. And now sure- that fundamental education was the best. To read el. diagram one must know: -elements,lines -divide diagram on (power circuits,signal mv-t, control circuits etc) - and last: to read montage scheme

[@sergiogaldamez2177]

One of the best lessons on youtube by far!

[@davenerr]

I just passed my state certification in electricals for cars and light truck vehicles in the state of Michigan.The one thing that I had trouble with on the test, was diagrams.You are clearing up many unanswered problems that went wrong in my mind about diagrams.

[@theeasyway9432]

keep it up Hobby Electronics is the future.

[@lucman22aa]

Neon...this circuit does have a return. It is the green wire that he talks about. When the relay is energized (switch closed) the power is sent from the positive terminal and the electrons flow from the return through the load to the positive terminal of the power source. The only issue I have with this explanation is that there are no set standards for wire colors (it depends on the specifics of what the schematic is addressing (ie...automotive, circuit cards, computers etc...)) . The ground wire is usually black and not "green" in DC circuits. Positive is not always the color red. This explanation might give people a false sense of trying to identify voltages.

Uh, ground in an automotive diagram or wire harness is usually black or brown, almost never green. Otherwise a great explanation of how to read a diagram.

i’m a junior in highschool and recently got interested in this field, what are some good ways I can get into this field if I’m interested in getting a job when I’m older?

[@realfixesrealfast]

Good choice and your timing is great. The auto repair field is advancing faster than many of us old guys can keep up with. We need you and your future is bright. There are all sorts of things you can do like working for shops and learning as you go. But the one thing you will always need is TRAINING. Approach it with an open mind, not like a know it all. As you begin, work for different types of shops (engine, transmission, electrical, body, etc) until you find what really interests you. Also, our trade is rapidly becoming technical so get as much IT type train as you can. All of our stuff is now interlaced with computers so the more you can learn about that field the better off you will be.
