Fully Automatic Factory Service Manual (FSM) Downloading

[412unner]

85 pickup

Great job on the quick download setup; if the manuals date back to 1985, could I get a list for '85 Toyota pickup? Thanks.

so noone has tired this on a mac?

Nate, I noticed that you have the repair manual for the 95 T100, but are there any other manuals for that rig, ie EWD, collision etc?

Thanks,
Dan

Also, it seems your server is up, as I have transferred several packages but am waiting to start until the other T manuals are available or not available.

It's probably time to update:

My host saw the increased traffic and cut me off over fears that what I am hosting may not be legal. I have worked with them to restore service but they seemed hesitant to do so. It is in my best interests right now to postpone further packages and cooperate with my host to keep the ones we've got now online until I find someplace else to store them.

Sorry for the delays in running new stuff....

 

[cstamm81]

so are the packages that were already there able to be downloaded? You are just not sticking any new ones out there, correct?

Thanks Nate. I just did this today, and came home early from work to do my dloads (dang corporate firewall blocks FTP out to the web......) Next time I'm passing thru Gainesville, I'll buy you a beer.

Nater,
So that you can lean me to fish instead of feeding me:
I need the 2004 Sienna, could I just get the file you have for the 2006, and rename all the 2006 -> 2004? Should get about everything?

Hi Nate,
I have read the whole thread a few times now and I must say I am impressed with the work that you're doing. Would it be too much to ask for a service manual for 2002 ES300?
Thank you so much in advance
GT

I'm late to the party. Are the items that were already there still available for downloading?

 

[gintonic]

I just realized that I can't create a TIS account because they're available to US residents only and I live in Canada. This sucks. Is there any way around it? (Other than moving to the US?)

Nate,

I was wondering if it would be possible to get all of the available manuals for a 1998 Rav4 and a 2003 4Runner.

Thanx
George

Same problem for me. I need one for a '90 HZJ80. I don't think Toyota Australia offers the same service. I searched once before a while ago and had no luck.

Dont know if toyota still sells the manufacture's body and chassis maunual - its been one of the phone calls Im still waiting to get around to making

Very nice!
Some tips for linux users.

I got it to work on linux pretty easily with just a few minor modifications to the file "begin_download.bat":

1. Add the following line to the beginning of the file:
#!/bin/bash

This tells your shell to interpret the file using the bash shell

2. Make the file executable:
chmod +x begin_download.bat

That's the command line - your favorite file browser almost certainly has a way to do it also.

3. Convert to unix style linefeeds with the following command:
dos2unix begin_download.bat

4. Search for and escape the ( and ) charaters in the input file names. For example, line 32 of the begin_downloader.bat file for the 1993 Land Cruiser repair manual is:

wget -i Starting+System_Starter+(1.4+Kw).txt -nd -nH --directory-prefix="../Starting System/Starter (1.4 Kw)" --load-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies cookies.txt;

You need to edit the filename following the -i as such:

wget -i Starting+System_Starter+\(1.4+Kw\).txt -nd -nH --directory-prefix="../Starting System/Starter (1.4 Kw)" --load-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies cookies.txt;

Thanks again!

AFAIK the manuals are available but they are bloody expensive and you need to get one for each section. Even if you are just looking for wiring diagrams you need to get each manual as they split the wiring diagrams up for each section

I have the Haymes and the Gregorys ones but I'd prefer the FSM. The electronic version would be supercool to keep on the laptop in the 80

I have two important comments which will probably solve some problems.

1. The poor Canadians who don't have access.
Well, I live in Poland and have downloaded my FSM. Simply type a US address and you're ready to go.

2. NaterGator. I can create an FTP account on my server. How much do you need? 100MB, 500MB 1 GB? No problem with any size and with the host. Just send me a PM and you will have access as soon as I read it. I guarantee that your files will be there always.

Sine my wife has the 2004 4Runner, I thought I'd give this a try.

BTW, Grate job on putting this together.

I selected 2005 4Runner link from Nate's list since I don't see any link for 2004. Followed the steps and every thing executed flawlessly in both Windows (XP) and Linux platform (ubuntu, tcshrc). I did modify the .bat file to run in linux.

But after the folders created, I don't see any pdf files in any one of'em. All folders have an html1 and an html files. Both html files bring a red blank toyota tech info screen on the browser.

But if I cut and paste any of the pdf links from .txt file on the browser, the pdf file comes up and I can then save it.

Any idea what's happening here?

Thanks

Here's some more info, FWIW

In Linux (and windows too i believe) I pasted the following command in the terminal:

wget -i Engine+Control+System_Knock+Sensor+\(1GR-FE\).txt -nd -nH --directory-prefix="../Engine Control System/Knock Sensor \(1GR-FE\)" --load-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies cookies.txt

I get the following output. I am only pasting the snapshot in bold:

Non US TIS accounts

I have two important comments which will probably solve some problems.

Poor Canadian here, I tried again to get a TIS account an American address and it doesn't work cause the billing address doesn't match the credit card. Did you use a credit card with American address?

This looks like it may be a cookie problem or URL escape problem in linux. Are you absolutely certain you were logged in and had the right cookie info pasted in?
