Abstract:
A processor may receive, from one or more electronic control units (ECUs) of a particular vehicle, vehicle-system data including information about a state of one or more vehicle-systems of the particular vehicle. Also, the processor may receive, from one or more data sources other than the one or more ECUs, other input data indicative of a state of the particular vehicle. Based on the vehicle-system data and on the other input data, the processor may determine repair information to be specified in a repair order (RO) associated with the particular vehicle. Further, the processor may generate an RO specifying at least the determined repair information, wherein the generated RO is associated with the particular vehicle. Then, the processor may direct a display device to display at least one visual indication representative of the generated RO.
