Its a FSM

guessing I have to go through a dealer to get a FSM right?? about how much does one cost??

if you saerch really good most of them are online. i cant remember the place but i downloaded a '90, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97 and 98. they were in zip files. uncompressed their about 25-35 megs. the section you would need most, EM is only about 1.5 megs. if i had a way i'd serve it up. but i am server deficient. anyone that could take an ftp upload i'd send it your way.

I have 91-93 fsm on CD if someone wants to send me SASE and CDR or whatever.

I downloaded What I think is an FSM..it was all zipped pdf files and there was one that said "fwd start here!!!" It says it is from a 93 240sx but I thought fwd was front wheel drive...all the pics and stuff in it are of the 240 though.. But anyways It has all these PDF files called BR,CL,ET,FE,MA,ST....Is this the FSM?? And I think if it is, it is the right one for my car so.. I am hoping it is...I really dont want to spend the money to buy something that can be downloaded for free.. oh and BTW, I got it from http://www.zeroyon.com/TheSite/frames.html click on tech if it isnt aready there!!

yeah thats it, BR is brake, cl is clutch, FE is fuel and exhaust, MA maintenance, ST steering. You want to look for EM, engine mechanical. I don't see ET listed on mine though. EF and EL though.

[Maverick7687]

yeah....the ET was a goof.... Hell yeah, I downloaded a FSM and I didnt even know it... i kinda thought that was it..

I got a question for you guys..its not about the KA but I dont feel like starting a new thread.. I will look through the FSM after I post but just in case it isnt here. I have read window defroster on my 93 and it dosent work..I took a test light to it and the right hand (pass.) side is getting a light but the driver side isnt.. is the driver side supposed to be a ground or do I have a lose connection somewhere?? Thanks, Mav
