Abstract: The present invention is directed to computerized vehicle servicing and diagnostic systems that communicate with or access remotely located computers via the Internet that have pre-stored data or utilize pre-store data and parameters. The present system provides a navigational framework with two modules, the Menu Mode (random) and the Wizard Mode (sequential). The Menu Mode provides direct access to any required process and Wizard Mode provides a flexible control of process sequences and allows for user modification.

Abstract: A system for temperature control of an electronic component includes a heat plate supporting the component; a heat plate temperature sensor; a fan capable of providing air for cooling the heat plate; and a fan control for using the heat plate temperature to control the operation of the fan to provide a substantially constant heat plate temperature. The system can further include a heat pipe assembly having fins and coupled to the heat plate with the fan capable of providing air to the fins. The heat pipe assembly can include at least two heat pipes each having first ends coupled to the heat plate and second ends situated in a condensation section where at least one of the heat pipes has a different working fluid than an other.

Abstract: A noise-attenuating shielding unit and method for a speaker according to which a shield is formed by a housing of a noise-attenuating material having a metal plate attached thereto. The housing is located over at least a portion of the speaker and relative to the speaker so that the plate is magnetically attracted to the magnet of the speaker to secure the shielding unit to the speaker.

Abstract: A two component desensitizing dentifrice composition, having reduced astringency and enhanced taste is disclosed which comprises a first aqueous dentifrice component containing a desensitizing potassium salt, having a water content greater than 44% by weight; and a second anhydrous dentifrice component containing a stannous salt, the first and second dentifrice components being maintained separate from each other until dispensed for application to the teeth.

Abstract: In a data processing system, a first system processor is coupled to a first system bus. The first system processor includes a first bus controller. A second system processor having a second bus controller is coupled to a second system bus. The first bus controller is then coupled to a management bus, and the second bus controller is coupled to the same management bus. Thereafter, at least one feature device is coupled to the first system bus, the second system bus, and the management bus. The feature device is also configured to communicate system processor communications with the first system processor via the first system bus. Next, a problem that affects system processor communications over the first system bus between the feature device and the first system processor is detected. In response to detecting such a communications problem, a command is sent to the feature device via the management bus.
