The full book is Thermo King's factory Diagnostic Manual TK 51652-1-OD (Rev. 1, 01/03), complete and unabridged — 401 pages.
WHAT THIS BOOK IS — AND WHAT IT IS NOT: This is the Spectrum TS DIAGNOSTIC manual — Thermo King TK 51652-1-OD (Rev. 1, 01/03), © 2002 Thermo King Corporation. It is the diagnostics and troubleshooting book for the SPECTRUM TS multi-temperature truck units and the ThermoGuard SPECTRUM control system (Controller Software Rev 2500, HMI Software Rev 6500): the control-system hardware and software, operation, the complete alarm/fault code diagnostics, the service procedures, the refrigeration system section, and the schematic and wiring drawings. The separate Spectrum TS Maintenance Manual is NOT included in this book — it is a different manual, and it will be published later as its own book. Nothing in this book is maintenance-manual content, and none is claimed. Also stated plainly: this manual has no alphabetical index — Thermo King built its finding around the section contents lists, and those are all in this book. The drawings in Section 9 are labeled TS 500 SPECTRUM — that is how Thermo King printed them in this manual, and they are reproduced exactly as printed (Schematic 5D55037 Rev. C, Wiring Diagram 5D55036 Rev. C).
