As the number of electrical components in cars increases at a rapid rate, so too does the chance for electrical failure. A method for locating shorts to the chassis of a car is developed in this thesis. The developed technique is capable of detecting the approximate location of current being injected into the body of the car using several sensors placed strategically throughout the car. This technique can then be used in the manufacturing process and in the field where it can notify the operator of any short-circuit related problems in their car.
