Is this even legal to download? I don't need to since I have direct access to this at work but I'm just curious

We dont ask those kinds of questions around here sir. Having such easy access to this phenomenal resource has greatly improved our ability to troubleshoot our own vehicles.

Agree on that I have all the manuals for various Hondas and acuras I've owned. Just never looked into the legality of it

Google the Helm Focus shop manual. You will find that manual to be very very similiar to this one. In fact the only difference is that one is not free. That one is downloadable as well so its totally legal to download. There are 2 forms of this manual on the site here. One that requires an install and a hack but provides EVERYTHING. The other can be stored on your favorite tablet or phone and browsed with an HTML reader app. That one has most stuff like remove and install data but no wiring diagrams.

As far as i know, no. If there was there would be no reason to have this manual posted on this site.

For some reason when I open the TSObrowser it loads but the screen is blank. When i left click and hold and then drag the mouse around that when all the stuff appears.

Did you take the entire installation folder and drop it into the root C:/ folder. Then do the install from there. When it is done you may need to create a shortcut to the desktop, cant remember if you have to do this or not.

no. I left everything in my d/l folder. I'll give it a try when I get home

Were their installation instructions or a readme included?

yeah.

1) Before doing *ANYTHING*, first create a system restore point. You'll be importing registry entries which *could* possibly conflict with other software on your computer.

2) Copy everything in the "C" folder directly into your C: drive. DO NOT PUT IT ANYWHERE ELSE. It must all be located in your C: drive. Do not rename any of the folders. If you get any prompts to replace actual files, just skip all of them. You shouldn't have to overwrite files.

3) Go into the RegEntries folder and open each of the files. It should import all the entries into your registry. The localmachine.reg one will probably give you an error saying it couldn't copy everything.

4) Run the SVGView.exe installer. This will install the SVG viewing software (made by Adobe) that will allow you to view the wiring diagrams. The SVG software is not needed to view anything else.

5) Everything should be installed now. Go to C:\FordFocusManual and run the file "tsobrowser.exe". This should open up the manual. You may also want to create a shortcut of it on your desktop.

I just copy and paste the "c" folder. not everything

no luck...still getting the error with everything in my "c" folder :sad::sad:

Many people here have followed the same instructions and have had no problems. I believe what we have here is a PEBKAM error.

Is there a 2015 version out there?

 

[breadstick]

You clicked on all the wrong links. Unfortunately, thats what happens when a file like this is hosted on a free webserver.

Are these files still available?

Always available. If for some reason they arent just ask for them to be posted and someone will.
