Check
Engine Beeper
|
When driving down a busy
road, you may not notice a “check engine” indicator light that suddenly turns on
within the car’s instrument panel. You could drive for many miles before
noticing the light. To provide an audible indication of trouble, the hobby
circuit below could be added. |
|
When connected to a
typical automotive check engine indicator light on the instrument panel, this
circuit will sound a loud beeper, when the light turns on. the hobby circuit
counts on the fact that most check engine signals swing from chassis ground
potential to +12v. When the signal is at 12v it turns on, the n-channel FET
which activates the beeper. |
