This simple circuit drives 6 LEDs in `Knightrider scanner mode`. Power consumption depends mainly on the type of LEDs used if you use a 7555 (555 CMOS version). We are not responsible for any injuries or damage caused by information from this website!.... -
Driving the highway with your high-beam headlights can really increase your visibility, but can he a blinding hazard for other drivers. This simple circuit can be wired into your headlight switch to provide automatic switching between high and low beam.... -
The circuit is based around the LM324 low power opamp which draws around 3mA of current, so it won`t bother the battery if left connected for extended periods.... -
This astonishingly simple circuit allows one or two powerful 12V 21W car bulbs to be driven in flashing mode by means of a power MosFet. Devices of this kind are particularly suited for road, traffic and yard alerts and in all cases where mains supply are.... -
For several years now, a rear fog lamp has been mandatory for trailers and caravans in order to improve visibility under foggy conditions. When this fog lamp is switched on, the fog lamp of the pulling vehicle must be switched of to avoid irritating.... -
In most countries it is now mandatory or at least recommended to have a rear fog light on a trailer with the additional requirement that, when the trailer is coupled to the car, the rear fog light of the towing car has to be off. The circuit shown here is.... -
These two headlight reminder circuits are easy to install and operate on the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) principle. The simple circuit involves adding just a 12V piezo buzzer between the lights circuit and a door switch. The buzzer sounds if the lights are.... -
This device is a simple timer, allowing to keep on the headlights of your vehicle for about 1min. and 30sec. , e. g. when accessing some dark place, without the necessity of coming back to switch-off the lights. Pushing on P1 allows C1 charging to full 12V.... -

Interior lights come on when I enter the car, and most of the time do not go out while driving. Once I park the car and remove the key, the lights will go off like they are supposed to. how do fix this problem in an otherwise fabulous car When you get out.... -
I would start by making certain that no light bulbs on the vehicle are burnt out, particularly the turn signal lights, brake lights and dashboard indicator lights. Funny things happen when bulbs are burnt out. It sounds like you know your way around a meter,.... -

A 2001 monte carlo. the only thing that will work is the lights. no radio no wipers noturn signals, none of the dash lights will come on when you turn the key on, i was told that my computer systym was out of sync. how would you go about resetting this.... -
A 2003 Monte CarloSS, I am having trouble with low idling, it cuts off while driving or when in park. It also has no dash lights and no one can seem to understand why, one day they worked and then they didn`t occasionally will come on for a second or two.... -
A useful timing strobe can be constructed using high-brightness LEDs and a few common components. Ignition pulses from the number 1 cylinder high-tension lead are used to trigger the circuit via a home-made inductive pickup. Transistors Q1 & Q2 buffer and.... -

Most cars do not have delayed interior lights. The circuit presented can put this right. It switches the interior lights of a car on and off gradually. This makes it a lot easier, for instance, to find the ignition keyhole when the lights have gone off after.... -
This circuit is much more modest, but certainly still worth the effort. It provides a high quality interior light delay. This is a feature that is included as standard with most modern cars, although the version with an automatic dimmer is generally only.... -
Kids these days seem to have most things you see in the toy shops, so if you have a son or grandson who has a collection of cars, here is something he will really appreciate. And it will be really special as you will be giving something made by you - a set.... -
Article for an LED driver design for automotive rear lights. Shows how dimming is best achieved with PWM and an LED driver IC that eliminates the need for external PWM signal.... -
This circuit switch slowly on and off the internal lights in a car. The delaying time can be adjusted changing the values of the 10k, 4M7 resistors and capacitor. Source: NEXT. GR.. -
Below is a Courtesy Light Extender for cars. When a door is closed in a car, it extends the ON time, so the passenger can see where he/she is sitting. Here is.... -
This circuit is used to simulate the police car lights by alternating flashing strobes seen on British police cars. The IC1a forms a square wave oscillator having adjustable frequency with VR1 to give the best effect. This square wave is bu.... -

This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of.... -
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is.... -
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to.... -
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This.... -
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the.... -
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,.... -
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the.... -
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power.... -
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
