Hey Vince, I went to one of your seminars in the 90s and also thought it was great! It took away a lot of the mysteries of electrical troubleshooting. I still have many of the articles that you wrote for Import Service (Magazine).
I salute you, Ed Smith in NY

Mr. Veejer I thought you might enjoy hearing how your training has helped me and American men and women in uniform.
Currently, I am about to get a technical manual revised with a safety issue dealing with Automatic traction control (ATC). I have read the 60 lesson course twice and also have studied your hands on trainer (H-111A) and the Electrical SHORTCUTS. We have corresponded before and this problem was my most challenging diagnostic problem ever but thanks to your training I have solved this complex problem . . . I am in Afghanistan . . . .
Your training has helped me to become the best electrical trouble shooter in Afghanistan and this is only one example out of dozens that I have solved to keep our war fighting mission going. The in-depth principle training with the laws of electricity has benefited me most not just your techniques but the understanding I have of electric circuits.

Hi Vince, I have been studying your electrics books and putting into practice at the workshop what I’ve learned from these I must admit wish I had this info years ago.
The Story: one of my colleagues checked a BMW 1 series for a no crank non start . . . he reported it required a starter motor because it sounded it was faulty . . . . a new starter was fitted and guess what, CLICK no crank and there was smoke coming from the starter area . . . I went over to the vehicle (to help) he said the new starter is faulty it’s burning up . . . I asked him to check the earth on the vehicle and he pointed to a jump lead he was using . . . I said you need to check from the battery at the battery to the engine block he said I can’t do that the battery is in the boot . . . I said it doesn’t matter where the battery is you must check from there, needless to say it was not checked and he removed the new starter and ordered another one . . . today another new starter (the second starter) was fitted and you know what the outcome was, yes click and smoke . . .
I did the tests from FIRST THINGS FIRST-Pro and found the engine block (voltage drop) was reading 10.5 volts . . . the earth cable was hanging together with dry corrosion when touched it came apart . . . and to top it all I found that the foreman also previously fitted a new battery too.
Thanks for your books I have learned from them in these situations. It gets frustrating when people just throw parts on, thanks to your books. I thoroughly carry out FIRST THINGS FIRST-Pro checks and it does help massively once you understand all the tests,
Cheers Del, in England

I bought a book vehicle electrical troubleshooting SHORTCUTS from you two years ago. I must admit it really help me troubleshoot most of my electrical problems.

Hello sir, My name is Charles Perkins we talked last year for a while and I must say now after reading you instruction on the 60 lessons, SHORTCUTS and doing the practical lamp trainer and using my flip chart I am the go to guy in my shop.
I work for the military contract side dyncorp international. Thanks for all the help and instruction. Even though my peers see me as the go to guy I still need to learn more. I'm about to re-read the 60 lessons and take notes again. I also left a comment below referencing your school of instruction just so young techs can get a chance at real troubleshooting!
