OK, what a bout this one.  Top of the range cars now have three or four
wires.  These wires connect in parrallel to all the bulbs, wipers etc.  Each
device has a chip connected to all the wires, the computer knows the status
of all the bulbs the current consumption of every device etc.  So your
computer can tell you if anything is wrong.

But how do you protect it againsed shorts on the single power line?
