is this a joke?
I want to see the electrical diagram and not download the ZIP opener or PDF writer.
I appreciate that this is a free site and that you support it through advertising – but where is the actual download of the diagram?
The links to the Flash-ebooks are working well, the diagrams aren’t allowed to be downloaded but if you click on the link of the diagram above the Flash-ebook will open in a new tab. When it’s fully loaded you can view the diagrams or the service manual you’re looking for. Be sure you’ve got Flash Player installed.
