Big JC Fault

[jw.pfitzner]

I spent hours on JC lastnight searching high and low for any kind of wiring diagram for a vt, i probably found two but they were to do with engine management and the other was a circuit... I think this website being called JUST COMMODORES should have a pdf of a complete service manual for every single commodore from day dot up, and if others request certain service manuals for other holdens then they should be granted with a url or even suggestions, every thread that had anything to do with someone asking for wiring diagrams or service manuals were either completely ignored or people just asked what their electrical problem was...

cheers people

Mate the name of the site is irrelevant, this is a forum, a place where people get together to share their thoughts. This isn't a technical website or anything.

If you want a wiring diagram than go out and buy a Gregory's or similar, its all in there.

[hakhawk]

you going to draw out every diagram yourself? because otherwise, we'd have to get permission from holden to distribute a free copy of the service manual they sell for a profit. or we could just breach copyright and do it anyway, im sure theyd love that, im sure darren would love that.

spend $40 and buy a gregorys/haynes/max ellery manual, you'll get all the wiring diagrams you need and then some!!

unless you want to be paying very high membership fees, whats on here is what you get. plain and simple.

^^^ Agree. How's it a 'big fault' of the forum though? It's a forum for people to share things. If someone hasn't posted up exactly what YOU want, big deal, look elsewhere. The interweb thingy is a big place and JC isn't the only site on it.

yeah i know that, but at 60 a manual... some people dont have a spare 120 bux to just go out and buy a vn and vt manual just to rewire tail lights... and quoting what u said "this is a forum, a place where people get together to share their thoughts." surely there is at least one member on this website that has a manual for there commodore, how hard is it to scan a few pages for another member or if they are requesting colour codes to certain wires why cant somebody just quote the code out of their manual, if i had all the manuals id help out with what i could if someone was asking for diagrams or so on so forwarth... and wikky i spent hours searchin not just JC but the whole web or what i could looking for one simple wiring diagram, i just wrote big fault so people would look at it and share there opinions on it... hakhawk to answer your question would i draw out every diagram? if someone requested a certain diagram then yeah id draw it out if thats what it takes to get around copyright and to help that person out cause i now know how hard it is to find one

[Coast_Calais]

agreed. big big problems IF all that info was posted on JC...

although this forum is a great source of info (and usually a lot of opinion) i suggest you buy a manual to undertake your VT > VN project.. can't make threads for URGENT help each time ya hit a snag on that one...

Banned.... lol

imagine the heartache people would have without this miraculous thing called the internet. theyd have to get out in the shed and nut it out themselves!!

[jw.pfitzner]

yeah i guess with copyright... im not at all pissed off about how long someone takes to reply to my thread, as long as i dont just get ignored haha, ill just wait for people to help out... if its a big enough problem i have other sources but for little stuff i just hit JC up

[Krisp]

more so the trouble of scanning every fricken page just to help some ding that cant be arsed spending 3 minutes working it out. i agree ban soop

Fail complaint. Are you even a JC sponsor? You know forums cost money? Why should JC aim to fulfill your every need? They don't, but on here you have thousands of members willing to help as best they can to answer your questions.... FREE of charge.

This is a "community" a place you can ask questions, meet people, show off your ride and much more, although, none of that is guaranteed.

I'm on parenting forums, they can't always tell me "what that rash is on my child" but they provide links, info, numbers just the same as you get here.

Don't be povo, go buy a manual.

[soop]

Fuggin sook.
Go and have a look.

[acarmody]

$60 each? Try Supercheap.

Or alternatively one of my bigger local libraries has workshop manuals on every Commodore model, try your local.

[jw.pfitzner]

what just cause u have a ve wagon ohhhhh mr moneybags puttin me on the povo mate what didnt u get about me not bein able to afford two manuals right this second, not to mention when i started the thread all shops were shut lastnight, i was SIMPLY VOICING MY OPINION i now understand there is copyright laws i did not think about that when i first posted this thread... logically on a website called JUST COMMODORES i thought there would be at least some type of diagram made different to that in a "gregorys" for people who cant afford manuals or need on the spot help and cant get to a shop so on so forwarth...
... this is made out to kikki btw no one else

[jw.pfitzner]

yeah supercheap is where i tried, they were on sale for 40 a while ago but i didnt need one then haha, last time i looked they were back up to 69.95 or somethin like that, ill give the library a go but cheers for that

[Krisp]

how does having a ve mean he has money? quite the oposite. get a manual from the interweb before you can whinge about paying an extra 10 percent and harden up

[jw.pfitzner]

i dunno, its brand new and he called me a povo so i assumed... extra 10% of what and are u referrring to the internet when u say "interweb"?

welcome to the real world, where you cant have everything handed to you for nothing. go get a library card, and check out your local library as acarmody said.

if you're getting charged $60 for a workshop manual, you're shopping at the wrong place.

[soop]

Frankly if you can't afford $60 for a manual you can't afford to fix the car anyway...

Also Kikki is a chick, as far as I'm aware.

[wikky]

Just so you know, Mr Moneybags is Mrs/Ms Moneybags. But don't make her angry 'cos she'll kick your arse to the moon!

[Krisp]

i wouldnt worry about kikki i would be more worried about what everyone else is thinking

[benno9911]
