Has anyone gotten the 04-05 service manual DVD to work? Mine keeps saying it's expired.

If you have one of the red discs, they will only work if the PC calendar is set to a date within the "valid" dates of the disc. The disc should have a date on the label, and the date will also be displayed when you open the disc. It will tell you that it is expired, but if you click one of the options, it will at least go into the main screen of the software and display a date if I recall correctly. Set your PC clock/calendar to that timeframe and the manual should work again.

That worked so I could use it. It was only showing the 2004-2005 escape for the service manuals. The wiring diagrams had all models. Guess I'm gonna order one.

Just got one a few weeks ago. Acually mine was free because he sent me a refund :p
