  • Patent number: 7130726
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing image data for visualizing a defective component and/or a repair cycle and/or a maintenance cycle of a road-bound motor vehicle, especially a passenger case or a motorbike. In order to reduce translation costs occurring for conventional repair instructions, the following steps are provided: digitalized data from at least two components of the vehicle is provided, especially CAD or vector data or another visual data format, digitalized data from the arrangement of the two components of the vehicle relative to each other is also provided. A first selection element for selecting a first repair cycle from a plurality of repair cycles, data or image data of the first step of the first repair cycle is provided, in addition to subsequent data or image data of the second step of the first repair cycle.
