The latest enhancement to the Mitchell 1 TruckSeries truck repair software<\/a> takes their wiring diagrams to the next level with exclusive interactive features that help increase efficiency as technicians can access component repair information directly from inside the wiring diagrams without having to initiate a secondary search.<\/p>\n

During a press conference held here today in conjunction with the American Trucking Associations\u2019\u00a0 Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition, Mitchell 1 demonstrated how the new interactive wiring diagrams<\/a> can significantly save time in diagnosing and repairing electrical problems in today\u2019s increasingly complex commercial vehicles. While viewing a wiring diagram, technicians can click on any component within the diagram to see a pop-up menu with selections to learn more about specifications, component location, connector views, guided component tests, and more. There is no need to exit the wiring diagram to find related information needed to diagnose the issue.<\/p>\n

\u201cWiring diagrams have always been a feature that sets Mitchell 1 software apart from other suppliers of similar programs,\u201d commented Ben Johnson, director of product management for Mitchell 1. \u201cElectrical diagnostics have become more challenging as commercial vehicles have advanced. At the same time, vehicle operators are pressed even harder in today\u2019s environment to maintain maximum uptime. Facilities tasked with servicing commercial vehicles understand that completing the repair correctly and as quickly as possible is imperative to get the vehicles back on the road and generating revenue. The new interactive wiring diagrams in TruckSeries speed up the diagnostic process, helping minimize the time the truck is out of service.\u201d<\/p>\n

The interactive wiring diagrams use patent-pending technology to build on the component-level enhancements introduced in 2019, including:<\/p>\n
