VY Holden workshop manual for cruise control

[J.T]

Has anyone got an online copy of the VY commodore workshop manual I could please get a copy of? I need it in particular to installing a genuine cruise control unit. I read from a previous message someone had access to one on the forum. Thanks for your help, JT.

What part(s) exactly do you need? Wiring diagrams are in a total different section to the actual cruise section.

[J.T]

Both would be great, I looked and couldn't see a wiring loom (that's not to say it's not there). I would also like the section on cruise control. Is there a complete version of the manual available? Also I need to purchase a complete cruise control kit including wiring but would like it to be genuine as I believe it looks tidier. The current price I have received is $460 for a complete kit, would you know anywhere else who would have a better price? Thanks.

I found this while giving info to another guy about installing cruise control, he wanted to know a rough price.

Definatly not $460 there

You'll have to give me a bit of time to get the parts of the manual for you. I'm a busy man atm. Everyday this week i've been working and i dont get a break until christmas day and then the day after boxing day! I'll get pics of trhe wiring loom and electrical diagrams up as soon as i can.

Hi,

I have a genuine VY Workshop Manual on CD.

I'll have a look tonight, and extract whatever I can for you.

I could fax it to you, or scan and e-mail.

let me know the best way to get it for you.

With regards to wiring looms, it is common for the loom for options to be fitted, but tapped up back at themain loom. When I fitted cruise control to my VS II manual in 1997, the loom was there (probably with the ABS loom as some VS did not have it), so I expect it would be there on VY still.

Regards.

Hi, Only just got home. Bit tired. Will get on to it over the weekend.

Cheers.

Hi,

The cruise control section of the workshop manual is 36 pages.

I am printing them off now. Big job to scan and e-mail, and a big e-mail too.

Need to come up with a method of getting them to you. Please advise.

Cheers.

Fekason, when i'm sending the manual i usually just create a PDF with the required pages and security lock that. Maybe you should look into that? It makes emailing something like 36 pages much easier and smaller!

[Fekason]

Hi,

Have scanned the 36 pages. File is about 1.5MB, in pdf format. I think that is probably too big to attach, but I'll try.

Have a look at the detail. If you intend to do much work on your car, the genuine manual is worth the cost IMHO.

Cheers,

Norm

Hi everybody,anyone know how i can my hands on genuine work shop manual and a parts manual on cd?

[Fekason]

Hi,

The best place to start would be the spare parts section of a Holden dealer.

If the price is too high, watch Ebay and one may eventually come up.

Cheers.

I have noticed that sometimes my VY Berlina cruise control on more than one occasion kicks in even when I have not activated it.

if anyone needs any information i have the actual sotware that holden use when you take your car to their shop. Holden Service Information Package its called. it covers vt-vz and astra rodeo etc.

ill upload the pdf you are after if you want, cheers.

edit: you cant buy this manual, even mechanics have to pay about 500$ a year licencing to use the siftware, and cant copy or screenshot anything.

I've got the same thing and probably more than you do.

i didnt know it was a competition.

[sp001in]

thats how you made it out to be. Can't believe you were considering charging for a manual that is already in breach of copyright. Smart cookie.

[esca_ByDesign]

Cookie?
If you actually read the thread I said I wasn't going to charge people, I considered it for about 1 day.
If people want it, they can have it. I just can't find a site that will host a 4.7GB zipped file lol.

[sp001in]

4.7gb???? HOLY SHIT. All my commy manuals wouldn't be more then 2.0gb total.
I've got all the official holden PDF manuals from VR-VZ including HSV and Stato's, and the book format manuals from VC-VP that have been scanned into PDF.

What else do you have other than commodores?

[esca_ByDesign]

nah mine is only vt-vz and rodeo, astra etc.
i dunno the guy i got it off worked for the company that made the electronic manuals for holden and he got from the first electronic one was made (VT) and when he left the company was when they just did the VZ so he only has up to that. its got stato and hsv etc, all this other shit too that i havent even had a chance to look at lol.
its an actual program that you have to install onto your computer, but i just use the pdf's that are all linked together (like 7 just to get to how to pull out the dash on a vy lets say lol)

i can burn you a disc if you want and snail mail it to you? im sure youll have more use for it than i do, hardly get time to take shit apart with work n uni atm. but as you read in the other thread from that guy who works for holden, its what they use everyday haha,
