Mitchell 1, a Snap-on company, said it is currently updating its online programs, Tractor-Trailer.net, Medium-Duty.net and Repair-Connect.net, to include diagnostic and repair information for 2010 engines designed to meet new EPA emission standards. All the information necessary to service Cummins ISB, ISC, ISL, ISX 11.9 and ISX 15 as well as Detroit Diesel DD13, DD15 and DD16 engines were added in July. 2010 Volvo, Mack and Maxxforce engine repair information will be added in August.
According to the company, since the 2010 engine technology is new to fleets and repair facilities, technicians require a source of information that aids them in diagnosing and fixing problems associated with trucks that meet the new emission requirements.
Mitchell 1 said its programs maximize shop productivity because technicians become familiar with a single format that gives them all the vital diagnostic and repair information they are likely to need to complete a service order correctly. The programs are continually updated and include thousands of detailed color wiring diagrams to help solve complex electrical problems as well as full-color photos that provide a real-world view of many vehicle components and assemblies. Unique to Mitchell 1 products, CircuitSelect allows the user to easily trace, highlight, isolate and hide individual wiring circuits using different colored highlights, the company added.
