I am a professional mechanic so I work on my own vehicles, to save some money over buying the repair manuals offered by Dodge I decided to purchase this manual for a rear anti-lock brake problem I'm having. When I found the correct section of the book,I thought that I had it made, the codes were there, pictures of the componets were there, great, I thought. So I began reading the text on obtaining trouble codes to isolate my vehicles problem. It tells you how to get the codes by shorting the diagnostic terminal to ground then read the codes on the ABS light on the dash, cool! Where's the connector? And which terminals at the connector once you find it!!! No pictures or descriptions of where this connector is located what it looks like or how many wires it contains. So thought I'd go to the wiring diagrams and at least find the terminal numbers or wire color codes to the ABS computer maybe that will help, NOT! All the wiring diagram shows is the feed wire from the engine computer to the ABS computer with a block that says "to ABS computer"! Not even a diagram of the ABS system! Not much help!!! And very frustrating!! BUY THE MOPAR BOOK FOR 129.00!! Thats if your going to do anything past oil changes and spark plugs!!

The chilton total car repair was a great priced book thru amazon market the book has and does help show the user how to do some repairs. wish it had more pictures. but who could really complain for 1 cent thats right 1 penny plus 3.99 shipping Iam HAPPY.

easy to understand and gives you step by step instruction for all repair procedures. i also bought a chiltons for my wife's car however it is not as good as this one i bought for my truck. i like the detail. get this book and you will gain confidence as well as the satisfaction you saved a ton of cash.

Bought this book so my husband could understand the mechanics of the truck he recently purchased. The book has been extremely helpful for him.
