Mitchell 1 enhances TruckSeries wiring diagram navigation

The latest upgrade to Mitchell 1’s truck repair software suite includes enhanced wiring diagrams.

The latest upgrade to Mitchell 1’s truck repair software suite includes enhanced wiring diagrams featuring intelligent navigation that takes the user directly to the specific component diagram with the related wires automatically highlighted. 

Mitchell 1’s wiring diagrams have been a core component of the company’s commercial vehicle repair software since it was first introduced in 2006. Now, the new navigation feature speeds up the search process and quickly opens the right diagram without the need to scroll through multiple pages, the company said.

This makes it faster and easier for technicians to find the exact wiring diagram they need for efficient and accurate diagnosis and repair.

“Both speed and accuracy in repairing commercial vehicles are critically important to carriers because trucks don’t generate revenue when they are down,” said Kristy LaPage, business manager for the Mitchell 1 commercial vehicle group. “The new, smarter navigation in TruckSeries makes it much quicker to find the exact wiring diagram a tech needs to diagnose, repair and get the truck back on the road as soon as possible.”

Additional features of the enhanced wiring diagram include:

  • The ability to toggle highlighting of associated wires for each component without having to click each wire separately.
  • A simplified view of complex diagrams with highlighting that extends across all the pages until the wire reaches its termination point.
  • Zoom and orientation are maintained across multiple pages, streamlining navigation.

When performing a deep dive into a wiring diagram, hidden wires appear faded but do not disappear entirely, providing detail while preserving the big-picture view.
Mitchell 1 says its TruckSeries is the only comprehensive repair information software suite of its kind available for Class 4-8 trucks, providing a one-stop, single log-in, all-makes data resource for mechanical labor estimating, diagnostic trouble code procedures and comprehensive repair information, all packaged into a single application.

TruckSeries is integrated with Manager SE Truck Edition, Mitchell 1’s truck shop management software that delivers an end-to-end solution for every step of the repair process.
