review on the $10 3 day Helm pass, A+++++++++

wanted my GE brothers and sisters to know..........

Did the online manual 3 day $10 pass, actually you pay helm and then you are directed to Honda from then on.

First amazing thing is you have access to all Honda and Acura service manuals so I went into items for our 08 civic, besides spending hours on the 09 Fit

2nd very amazing thing is you get the books online and they have a bunch of animated videos on taking things apart which are incredibly helpful!!!!!!!!!!!
obviously not available if you have the printed book.

Altogether I rate the online manuals + awesome animations a 12 on a scale of 10

I think Taffy white might have been the first to mention this was available....thank you!

Very nice. I didn't want to be the first to try this out. Plus rep for you, whatever rep really means.

No prob that helm online is impressive, rep is approval or disapproval series of green + or red- dashes and a number. I learned today it can be used as a weapon so this pos rep is most appreciated LOL.
Hey, wont be here much anymore, got clobbered by both management and the usual crowd. so if you need anything PM me.
Peace

printable? Yes kept bangin control+P and printed out about half a reams worth of paper (their software has a printer icon button right there, but control+P is faster)

downloadable? Didnt appear to be an easy way to do it (no download icon button), there is always a way as what you are lookin at should be saving in a temp file. Kids and dogs were in the wild play mode when I was doing that, so too distracted to accomplish it LOL

no no no, theloxmyth is a very good guy

actually every single time I go to helm I type 'helm' in my google toolbar then click on the link as I havent remembered if it is helm or helminc or whatever.
so theloxmyth gave you good advice and a very quick way to get there.

I have heard that the book version of the helms manual does not have wire colors on its wiring diagrams. did the manual you viewed from the redirect to honda have wire colors, specifically the lighting schematics?

Yes when you are online it has the lines on the diagrams with colors, they printed out in color too
Only on the plug diagrams it doesnt (and that would be difficult to do)
those will list pin 1 Blk, pin 2 blu....etc

thanks so much for the info on the wiring color question. that seals it- the online pass sounds better than the paper manual from helms.
