ChiltonLibrary

The DACC Library provides access to the ChiltonLibrary of automotive information. The database provides technical bulletins and recall notices, repair information, and some maintenance schedules and labor estimation information. Information for more recent models is least comprehensive, but content varies by manufacturer. The database also includes ASE test prep material.

To look up information about a specific vehicle, use the Vehicle Selector. Choose a year, a make, and a model.

Select the option you need from among those available. This example includes all of the possible information. Others may only include Repair information and bulletins, or even only bulletins.

Selecting an option from the vehicle data menu.

Then select the vehicle system of interest (ie. brakes). Then the aspect of the system. From there, continue to drill down through the menus to the particular information you need.
