We\u2019re excited to introduce you to 1Search\u2122 Plus<\/strong><\/a>, the latest enhancement to the TruckSeries truck repair software<\/a> that will help you work even faster and more accurately in your shop.<\/p>\n

The first thing you\u2019ll notice is that the TruckSeries user interface and search engine have been redesigned to return information in a graphical card format.<\/p>\n

Below are some of the key features in the 1Search Plus module that will benefit technicians.<\/p>\n

Intuitive, graphical card format with more targeted results<\/strong><\/p>\n

The look and feel of the cards is intuitive, making the information easy to navigate. The cards resemble the smartphone apps that we\u2019re all familiar with, so it\u2019s easy to adopt the new format quickly.<\/p>\n

Information is organized into specific cards by category, returning targeted information sets for the selected vehicle and search term. Most searches will return between 6 and 9 cards, with 11 cards being the maximum.<\/p>\n

The cards appear only if there is relevant information to the vehicle and the search term<\/strong><\/p>\n

TruckSeries will only show a card if there is associated information behind the card. For instance, the wiring diagrams card will only show if there is a wiring diagram related to that search term. So you have access to the full database of Mitchell 1 information, but you only see the information related to the vehicle you\u2019re working on \u2014 complete coverage, without the clutter.<\/p>\n

Here are the possible cards and their descriptions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
