摘要 |
A system and method for improving diagnostic aids such as fault trees and repair manuals uses feedback in the form of repair data from a distributed base of data collection devices used by technicians. The data is processed by a data analysis computing unit. The computing unit determines proposed modifications to the diagnostic aid based on the data. A diagnostic tool editor is used by a subject matter expert to review the proposed modifications and either accept, reject, or modify the diagnostic aid. The modified aids are then made available to the service technicians in the field, improving their efficiency and ability to more quickly diagnose machine conditions. The disclosure is applicable to machines generally, including for example automobiles or components thereof, such as engines and transmissions. |
