PREDICTIVE VEHICLE TROUBLESHOOTING METHODS AND SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17664764 titled 'PREDICTIVE VEHICLE TROUBLESHOOTING METHODS AND SYSTEMS

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application is about vehicle diagnostic methods and systems that provide step-by-step troubleshooting guidance. - The method involves determining a sequence of recommended troubleshooting actions for resolving a potential fault condition associated with a diagnostic code. - The recommended troubleshooting actions are based on a vehicle component associated with the diagnostic code and metadata associated with the vehicle. - Historical diagnostics data is used to determine the sequence of recommended troubleshooting actions. - The recommended troubleshooting actions are provided within a client application on a client device. - Graphical indicia of the recommended troubleshooting actions are displayed in accordance with the sequence. - The probability of resolution associated with each recommended troubleshooting action is based on historical diagnostics data. - The goal is to provide predictive troubleshooting guidance to help resolve vehicle faults efficiently.


Original Abstract Submitted

Vehicle diagnostic methods and systems are provided for providing predictive step-by-step troubleshooting guidance. One method involves determining a sequence of recommended troubleshooting actions for resolving a potential fault condition associated with a diagnostic code based at least in part on a vehicle component associated with the diagnostic code and metadata associated with the vehicle using historical diagnostics data and sequentially providing, within a client application at a client device, graphical indicia of the recommended troubleshooting actions in accordance with the sequence based on a respective probability of resolution associated with the respective recommended troubleshooting actions based at least in part on the historical diagnostics data.
