Where can I find a good FSM?

[A.Wilson013]

So I had a little bump that put this back on my radar.

Good luck for you guys...
Software updates or some other changes no longer limit my ability to compress the files. I've zipped all the files I have and uploaded them to my Google Drive. Here's the link.

https://drive.google.com/drive/fold...pUZk9pMG1nY3loMmhQLWdKbHdUSlVPd3c?usp=sharing

The files titled "Complete" are arranged as they were on the website. Each major system has a folder.
The files titled "Printable" are arranged as if you were reading them in a hard copy FSM.

Once you get use to the layout, it's generally easier to find things on a computer using the "Complete" layout.

I've never shared files this way before so someone please let me know if the link is working properly.

One other side note. The FSM is probably very similar between the '96-'02 4Runners, but I know for a fact that the Electrical Wiring Diagrams have differences. Again, these files are specifically for the 2000 model.

[MENTION=142712]bennett707[/MENTION] Download this FSM. I've never seen a 2000 version.. Much more applicable to your 99 than the commonly found 01-02 floating around

I tried that. Doesn't work for me. The html index is there, but not the actual .pdf files. In general, Wayback only gets you html, not .jpg's or .pdf's, etc. How-to's can be found, too, but no pics.

Awwww man. The wiring stuff is there, I didn't check the repair manual. The wayback machine did archive that stuff on Dec 30, 2016 and you can get to it through the history if you know exactly what you are looking for. Somebody might have to go through the pain of downloading it all. :/

As they are zipped, the only way I know to use them is download and unzip them.

Zipping was the only way to upload them that made sense. If they weren't zipped I would have had to upload every single file individually.

It's a shame that TechInfo/Toyota wised up and stopped allowing you to just "download as pdf"

You can still download the older stuff as pdf right? When I downloaded these I tried to download the manual for my BRZ (FR-S, Toyota 86, etc.) and all the files were html. That was pretty aggravating. I couldn't figure out a way to do anything with them.



So the files I uploaded work, right? You will have to use a computer to download and unzip them as far as I know.

You're right, the EWD is all there. As long as it lasts, it will do for my electrical fun and games with [MENTION=102597]IBallEngineer[/MENTION].

My apologies. Bookmarked.

OK, I found this URL:

Wayback Machine

This will take you to a list of 315 chapter URLs and that takes you to a calendar where, if you find a blue dot, you can get to the .pdf and download it.

I did download the entire EWD for my collection, but 315 of these repair chapters is a bit much for a model I don't own. Also I would have to build a usable index as these URLs are arcane. I can find what I need, but I bet most who don't know the FSM can't.

Is there an easier way? I am no Wayback expert.

I downloaded the big zip file and extracted the 5 zip files in it.

Looks good so far.

Thank you!

Thanks for posting this! How did you go about finding it? I was able to access both the repair and wiring manual and comes up just like it did from tacoma.site40.net

Its just the Internet Archive / Wayback Machine. Go to the main site, enter in a website address you want to see from some time back and hit go... Check out google from back in the day for fun!

If you be patient. You can find a used book on eBay or Craigslist. Like I said I got a book for $50!!!!

Thanks for posting the 2000 repair manual! I noticed that previously, the 2002 one was the most common floating around the forums.

Are there major differences between the model years such that one should seek out the one specific to their year? eg. I have a 1998 but have been using the 2002 manual without problem for years now.

Awesome! Thanks for this, a lot of electrical schematics I've looked for in the past! [MENTION=73515]ajonesnv[/MENTION] [MENTION=113639]Mgyver1[/MENTION], check this out!

Has anyone else had issues pulling up some of the pages in the repair manual link? I can get into the table of contents but when i click on a link it says "wayback machine doesn't have the page archived". Some of the links still pull up the fsm pages. Several weeks ago I don't remember running into these issues?

 

[Ricktuk]

Thanks for this. I am on about 5 other vehicle forums this is by far the most active and useful one

 

[seabun]

Fwiw the page links in the online version may not be working, but the original link from post 3 in this thread does, and you can download the fsm from there. I was out of town last week and needed it, but my copy was at home on my hdd. I found this thread and was able to download it again from Rock_Rat's post, as well as one of the Tundra manuals. Lifesaver!
