Chilton's Library Password
 
A year or more ago, someone posted the URL and password for a library in Roswell, NM. This let us read the Chilton's manual. I have the password - cactus - but I don't see any place to enter it.

Because I'm a problem solver, it's fun finding a way around pay walls :)

From that link you have, click the ChiltonsLibrary.com link on the right side. http://elportalnm.org/access.php?url...portal?db=CHLL

You'll be presented with a prompt for Out of State Access since they are figuring out your location by the IP address you're coming from and chances are you are not in that state. I found a link for the city by poking around their site: New Mexico Library Directory

Plug this in for the city: Abiquiu
Plug this in for the ZIP: 87510

In you go :)

Roswell, NM = The truth is out there.

Amazing! So you simply told it you were from Abiquiu. How did you come up with that city name?

Funny, but I wanted info on the 2019 Fit which is a new design, and 2018 is the latest Chilton's they have, but all it lists for 2017 and 2018 are recalls and bulletins. The latest repair info is for 2016.

Yes, I told them I was from that town :thumbups:

I used this link (New Mexico Library Directory) which I found by Googling the NM state library system which led me to this link: New Mexico Library Directory

You can't stop the signal...

I just grabbed the first city in alphabetical order

Well, that's funny. I thought Abi... was some sort of shorthand for Albuquerque. : )

Help with Chilton
 
In the past, I've been able to access the Chilton Manual via the library in Roswell, NM. Now, I can't get on. I entered a city and zipcode, but the password - cactus - was not accepted. At least I think that's the problem.
