Hello there,

I've finally had to start thinking about my wiring loom for the mini, it's going to have to be predominantly a custom affair, anyway there's noway I'm tackling it without having a diagram to work off. This got me thinking I wonder if any of you lot know any software for this job?

It need to have symbols used in automotive application as well as being reasonably intuitive.

I guess it would be really good if it could be run as a simulator, that would be epic.

Any thoughts?

I have used the expressPCB software for circuit diagrams, its really aimed at logic pcb layouts but you can make your own symbols up.

Excellent. Thanks Mini13. Do you know of any similar software for Mac?

Ive used express PCB before. Really good software but i havent used it for ages though so it may have changed

Yenka & Picaxe may be worth a google.

That looks quite interesting for testing simple circuits, I will have a test see what the capabilities are.

I would love to acquire something like Mentor Graphics Capital or Vesys
But of course its prohibitively expensive...
