How do you go "back" in the JTIS? I've been looking at the thing for a year, but every time I want to go back to the page I was just looking at, I always have to go back to the top menu and filter my way down to the particular subject that I was looking at.

For example, I'm looking at how to replace the headlamp. The JTIS first says I need to remove the headlamp housing, and it refers me to that section of the JTIS, but it doesn't give me a clickable link to get there. It would be nice to click a "back" button and end up in the Electrical/Exterior Lighting/Removal and installation menu, but instead I have to go all the way back to the top menu and filter my way down again.

I know it's minor, but it's just been a pet peeve of mine. I figure someone here must know a way to do it that's easier than what I've been doing.

 

Understand your frustration...there's a way..I just can't remember it....have to reload it and have a look. I'll edit this one when I come up with it, Rev.

Edit: For me, the two rightmost buttons at the bottom solve the problem: "Text Navigator" and "Graphical Naviagator" respectively. If you are in a procedure, say how to replace a headlamp, clicking the graphical nav will bring up the picture-icon you clicked to get there (hex-head bolt suspended over the engine, in this case.) Clicking that pic will take you back one picture-heading at a time. I prefer the text-navigator. Clicking it from the "Headlamp Lens" procedure brings up an outline / TOC on the right with a yellow arrow pointing to the section you are viewing. The section numbers are listed thereon, so if it is referring you to another section, you can just scroll to and click on it.

 

You can either press the Esc key, or the U turn button (pointing to the left) on the lower button bar.

 

Doesn't work on mine. Maybe I need to download an updated version.

 

Sam,

The U-turn button and ESC don't work for me either, but the graphical navigator button works at the bottom.

When you're using the navigator (meaning you're NOT at the actual procedure page yet), you can click on the large square image in the middle, and that will take you back one step. Click on the large square image again, and you're back another step. Took me a couple of months to stumble on that one.

Once you're in a procedure, you should be able to click on the graphical navigator button at the bottom...and once you're back in the navigator you can go backwards as shown above.

Off topic- I cleaned my wheel sensors last weekend, with you speaking to me from my laptop in the garage. Thanks for your videos, and for all of your contributions to this forum.

Here is the button, and you can also see the version I have (under Help and the About). Strange as I think it should be version 21, the latest one available...

That's why I go for the navigators...
Scott, give its next door neighbor, the text navigator, a try
