Getting Started
Selecting the Vehicle Model and Options
All available model configurations are shown upon launch of this window.

To open a particular EWD, click on one of the icons at the right of the list.

The EWD list of model configurations can be reduced by either:

1. entering a VIN or
2. using the model filters

VIN Entry
If you have the VIN, enter it to narrow the list of possible EWDs.

1. Enter the VIN.

Note: If you have the HDS connected, the VIN will be automatically filled in.

2. Click the icon to open the desired EWD.

Note: Entering a VIN may not always shorten the list to one because the VIN does not include emission (KA, KC, KL, etc) and options (Navigation, Auto A/C,
etc).
 How To Use The EWD | 3

Model Filters
If you don’t have the VIN, you can narrow the list by using one or more of the model filters:

a) Emission
b) Line, Body, Engine
c) Transmission
d) Grade

1. Use the model filter pull-downs to match the vehicle you are working on.
2. Click the icon to open the desired EWD.

EWD Overview
Upon launch, the EWD provides pop-up tips indicating steps to begin use of EWD tools.

Layout
The screen of the EWD is split into the following three panes:

1. Navigation pane – used to navigate through the sections of the EWD.

2. Main pane – used to display the main content for each section.
3. Details pane – used to display information to supplement the main pane.

The Main pane utilizes buttons for the user to select EWD functions. Some of the buttons are common across multiple
sections of the EWD while the rest are unique to a specific section. Refer to “Using the EWD” for details of each section’s
buttons.

Additional Wiring Details

The Details pane utilizes tabs for the user to quickly switch between multiple information types for items that were
selected in the Main pane. Refer to “Using the EWD” for details of each section’s tabs.

Sections
The EWD is broken down into six sections which are listed in the Navigation tree on the left.

Click on Home to return to the VIN entry screen to select a new model.

Click on How To Use The EWD to launch the EWD General Information document.

Click on Schematics to open the list of system schematics. Click on either a system name or the icon to access sub-
system schematics. Clicking on the system link (system name) launches that schematic in the Main pane.
