Identifying Circuits
Description
Students have an opportunity to examine the workings of a power seat circuit system. Students will be able to identify a switch, motors, power souce, and circuit system running throughout the chair. There are four different circuits operating within the system: tilt up, tilt down, rear/ forward, up/down.
Challenge students to identify and trace the different circuit components of the system, creating a stimulating and engaging interactive activity!
