Ebay sells them, but I've heard that you have to reset the date on your laptop with some versions so it's not expired. I've found this place, but can't say if they're any better than ebay. http://www.4door.com/manuals/ford/ford_dvd.html

They claim to be the real deal, and the pictures look right, but I can't say for certain.

That place must not like 2000 trucks for some reason. Dont see 1 manual for them when I looked. I really need to find the one I got off of ebay a few years back.

Make sure to let us know. I stumbled on that while looking for a dvd another guy could buy. I've just been worried about giving out that link if it turns out to be garbage.

Ron, you might want to check your email spam. I didnt think I got a reply from them either, and then I was cleaning out spam folder. Found something like noreply @ spamarrest. They have some kind of spam thing to make sure your wanting to buy or ask questions before they reply.

Ron,

I think Rick is saying the ones he bought off ebay look the same as the ones in the picture. The picture on the ones for our truck look like the real thing too, but that's all I know.

The DVD takes some getting used to, and isn't organized as far as search function or grouping in the way I would prefer, but it has all the info if you can find it. It doesn't translate exactly to the AE, but does tell you what test needs to be run and how to run the test. You then just have to select the right thing on the AE screen and follow the steps in the manual. I found my cruise control problem this way. I just had to write down which order to push all the buttons for the switch test and the AE told me what was wrong.
