    Hello all,
    Just wondering what y’all use for a good resource for service, repair and diagnostic information. I’m working for a state fleet now and they don’t have much of anything.

    OEM is the only way. Whatever your fleet. Gets hard when you have a hodgepodge of equipment for sure.

    Beg or barrow what you can. It’s all online.

    Some major manufacturers are free access to service manuals. Eaton, Dana, Meritor, Bendix ……

    Engines and truck side are subscription based. Purchase access to what you have the most of.
     
    Heavyd and Diesel Dave Thank this.

    JPRO may be an option, especially for your hodgepodge of vehicles, and they have a 14 day free trial period. I have heard really good things from those who use it. If you could get the state to spend over 6k with 1.7k yearly updates. OEM is best though.

    On the plus side, J1939 is standard across the board so its pretty easy to find a fault code list.
