Mitchell On Demand 5 OEM wiring diagrams tend to vary between manufacturers because there really isn't an industry formatting standard. We completely redraw the majority of the OEM wiring diagram before they go into our database, meticulously verifying every detail. The end result is a consistent look and feel to every diagram in our products. And because they're redrawn - not scanned - they take up much less space on a CD-ROM or DVD, allowing us to put more information on each disc. This increases your computer's access speed because your CPU has smaller files to chase down.

Our customers said they want to swap discs as little as possible so they can spend more time repairing cars. To accomplish this, Mitchell uses the latest in compression technology, giving you all the data available to fix the vehicles in your shop on fewer CDs or, better yet, a single DVD for Domestic, and one for Import.

For example, our tables take up less space because the overwhelming majority are not scanned. A scanned table uses up to 68 times more space on a disc than our specially formatted tables. Taking up less space means we can include more model-specific information, giving you exactly what you need.
