I Need the New Directechs Password

Thanks for your help, we finally got the site to work and all is well!1 ohm

Becareful when printing out pages with the new Directechs. I've heard a few vehicles print up to 14 pages !! What a waste of paper IMO.Jeff

Directechs has fixed the printing issues, they now have a 'quick print' option that prints just the information you want instead of the whole vehicle. They have also put the notes back into the printouts. It seems that DEI must have been on to something when they claimed there was an excessive number of "unauthorized" users accessing their site. It appears they knocked out the people they no longer wanted to retain access to their site. From how I understand what they have implemented if you work for an independent shop the person who manages the directeddealers.com account has to enter your email address into their approved database. Once you are entered you can login and create your own personal password and use directechs. They will be monitoring the accounts and if they determine your individual account is being used in excess then they will shut you out but it does not lock you to a specific IP address allowing installers on the road access to the site. If you work for a big box store you can only access directechs if you access it from inside the store (using the store's IP address). The12volt has a large amount of vehicle information and if that is not enough go to Audiovox's site and register for an account. You do not need to be a dealer and Audiovox's information is on par with DEI's, they have tech notes, diagrams, etc.Installer, IT support, and FFL. I need less hobbies.

Cool, thanks for the information!1 ohm

I am not a very big fan of DEI, but in no way is the Audiovox info even close to as good. Most of the audiovox info is outdated or just plain wrong in a lot of cases. Mike

What is your site of choice? I usually look at Dei and compare it with our in-home site. I heard that bulldog security has a site also.1 ohm

bulldog is a bootlegged of DEI's directechs. Can't really complain about free information. Audiovox is great, very updated w/ quite a few 08 makes/models.Houston,TX

Do you have specific vehicles that you can show to prove this? I was not trying to say that Audiovox's site is perfect but their information is free, and all circuits need to be verified no matter where you get your information. I use directechs for 99.9% of my information but I have not seen Audiovox's information be that far off to say they are "outdated or just plain wrong in a lot of cases". If this is the truth I will stop recommending them!Installer, IT support, and FFL. I need less hobbies.
