Good morning
What are we diagnosing
today?
Start with a vehicle
Identify a vehicle or search a symptom
No VIN needed: type a year, make and model, a customer's name, a trouble code or a symptom — or jump straight into your open cases.

When a case resolves with a confirmed fix, such as a clean road test or a re-scan with no code return, TechBench drafts a shop-log write-up here for review before it is shared.

Identify vehicle
VIN lookup or manual entry
Step 1 of 2. Save the vehicle, then you'll describe the customer's complaint to open the case.
The VIN changed. Press Decode (or Enter) to look it up again.
NHTSA can't tell which of these engines this model came with. This is every engine in the maker's VIN table for the year.

Saved Procedures — coming soon
Saving procedures isn't available yet. For now, look things up in the OEM Library or with the workshop manual buttons on each vehicle.
Reference
OEM Library
Real manufacturer service bulletins submitted to NHTSA — not a full OEM procedure library, and not technician guidance. Each result is badged with its source.
Shared knowledge
Field-Proven Fixes
Drafted automatically from resolved cases with a confirmed fix, and reviewed by your team before publishing. Always tagged technician-contributed, never presented as OEM guidance.

People and roles
The owner, service managers, assistant service managers and the shop foreman can publish fixes to every shop. Technicians write cases and drafts.
Workshop manuals
The manual services your shop pays for. Cases and vehicles get a button that opens the service's own sign-in page. TechBench never stores your manual logins or copies manual pages. Services marked "name only" don't allow other sites to link to them, so open those from your browser.

Shop colours
Match the colours to your shop, the make you work on, or your dealership: start from Default or set your own four. Everyone in your shop sees them, in light and dark mode. Text colours are worked out for you and kept readable whatever you pick.
In light mode the page and cards are shown as a pale version of your colour, and in dark mode as a deep one, so text always has room.
🔧 Torque, the AI lookup helper
Torque lets your technicians ask questions about an open case. To answer, it sends that case's details (vehicle, complaint, symptoms, trouble codes) and the matching stored bulletins, code definitions and published fixes to an AI provider, which only picks which of those to show. It gives no repair steps, specs or diagnosis. Turning it off here switches it off for everyone in your shop.
Invite your team
Only the shop owner can create invite codes. Ask them for one.
