- receiving, by at least one processor, a first vehicle identifier that comprises a first vehicle model year, a first vehicle make, and a first vehicle model name;
displaying, by a display communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, a vehicle identifier field showing the first vehicle identifier;
receiving, by the at least one processor, a first text entry entered within a text field displayed by the display;
determining, by the at least one processor, one or more complete-text terms, wherein each of the one or more complete-text terms begins with the first text entry and is indicative of a component installed on a vehicle identified by the first vehicle identifier, a symptom exhibited by the vehicle identified by the first vehicle identifier, a component that failed on the vehicle identified by the first vehicle identifier, a test performed on the vehicle identified by the first vehicle identifier, or a labor operation performed on the vehicle identified by the first vehicle identifier, and wherein each of the one or more complete-text terms includes at least one more text character than the first text entry;
displaying, by the display, the one or more complete-text terms prior to selection of a complete-text term from among the one or more complete-text terms;
switching, by the at least one processor, a vehicle leveraging mode programmed into the at least one processor from a disabled state to an enabled state;

Abstract
A method and system provide for entering text into a text field by determining complete-text terms, displaying the complete-text terms, and receiving a selection of a complete-text term as text to be entered into the text field. In some cases, a complete-text term can include all prior text entries used to determine the complete-text terms. In other cases, a complete-text term can include only a portion or none of the prior text entries used to determine the complete-text term. The determination of the complete-text terms can be based on a vehicle identifier. The determination of the complete-text terms can be based on one or more complete-text term selection-limiters, such a location, use, or diagnostic trouble code associated with the vehicle. The system can include a vehicle service tool that requests a set of complete-text terms and receives the set from a complete-text term storage device or an off-board processor.
