Service Information Types

To help you find the exact information you need, ALLDATA®diy.com has placed the different types of vehicle information into fourteen (14) Information Types. Information Types contain articles that either:

Apply to a vehicle as a whole. (i.e. VIN Vehicle Identification Number numbers)
Is specific to the individual systems, subsystems and components/parts of a vehicle (i.e. an engine power switch diagram)

Because vehicles are built with differing systems, subsystems and components/parts, each vehicle you select may display different Information Types categories. The Information Types categories will display at either a Vehicle or Vehicle-Component level.

To find Service Information Types:

Navigate to the Vehicle level page.
Select an Information Type that best categorizes the type of general vehicle information you are looking for.

Note: Information in the Vehicle page appears in the two areas. Information Types (vehicle level) and Shortcuts to Popular Information appear on the right while the Vehicle Components list is on the left.

To view Information Types that are specific to a particular system:

From the Vehicle Components list, click on a category.
Select an Information Type that best categorizes the type of repair or service specification you are looking for.

What are Vehicle and Vehicle-Component Levels?

Vehicle level Information Types have information that pertain to your entire vehicle. They are found on the Vehicle level page that immediately displays after selecting a vehicle.
Vehicle-Component level Information Types have information that is specific to the systems, subsystem or component you are researching. These Information Types display after you select a system from the Vehicle Components list on the Vehicle level page.
