Toughbooks service manuals

[Gear6]

while searching for some odd model number, I came across this site.
they appear to sell service manuals for a lot of models (and they also list which Mark is every single one).

Did anybody buy from them ?
I would risk 10 bucks to get the service manual for my C1.
My experience disassembling it wasn't the best, and I would like to know how are things inside the lid (cables, antennas, etc).

Nope I never bought from them...just be careful because some of them sites will end up sending you regular manuals that you can get for free from Panasonic

Have a look here: http://elektrotanya.com/panasonic_cf-c1 ... nload.html or use the search function of the site with "panasonic cf-" if u have a different model

Looks about right..let us know how it turns out if you do get it.

onirakkiss, thanks for the link
I found the service manual on the link you posted, for only one C1 Mk1 (C1AD15xxx), french area ~2.5MB.
It's the simplified version, only 12 pages, and after some general remarks, there are just 4-5 exploded views and a table with part numbers.
The same for another C1B* I downloaded from there.

It's a good start, although I would have preferred the full service manual, with detailed instructions.

I'll mail the guy in my first link, to ask him if he has the full version.

That's the problem with many of the service manuals...they don't tell you a lot...just a break down of it

The guy from EletronicsRepair replied to my email, and he has the same 12page PDF as the free one on onirakkiss's link.

here is another site with free manuals for older models: http://www.tim.id.au/blog/tims-laptop-s ... -panasonic
