  • VEHICLE REPAIR GUIDANCE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20190228322
    Abstract: Systems and methods for creating fault groups of related vehicle component faults and recommending a solution for resolving detected faults are provided. In one implementation, a method includes a step of obtaining historical data related to a plurality of vehicle component faults detected from a plurality of vehicles. The method also includes the step of statistically associating the vehicle component faults to categorize the vehicle component faults into a plurality of fault groups. The vehicle component faults that are categorized in the same group have a higher probability of occurring together than vehicle component faults that are categorized in different groups.
