I Need Some Help

If you are unable to login to TechLink, walk through these steps to make sure your information is correct:

  1. You are no longer required to place forsythtech\ in front of your TechId.  However, the system will accept both forms of the TechId.
  2. Your password is case-sensitive.  This means that the first character of your password is Uppercase (Example: A), the second character is Lowercase (Example: a).
  3. If your birthday has a month or day that is a single digit, you need to pad the number with a zero (0).  For example, if you were born on May 1st, 1975, your 6-digit birthday would be: 050175 and not 5175.
