First Claim
1. A system for diagnosing a vehicle, the system comprising:
- a diagnostic tool including a microphone for recording first sound data associated with a first vehicle; and
a server having a memory for storing instructions and an electronic processor for executing the instructions stored in the memory toreceive training data, the training data including the first sound data and diagnostic data associated with the first vehicle,develop a first model based on the training data,receive a diagnosis request including second sound data and vehicle data associated with a second vehicle,select a model from a plurality of models based on the vehicle data, anddetermine a diagnosis for the second vehicle based on the second sound data and the selected model.

Abstract
Systems and methods for diagnosing a vehicle using sound data. One system includes a server storing a plurality of models and a communication device including a microphone. The communication device is configured to receive sound data received through the microphone associated with the vehicle and wirelessly transmit a diagnosis request to the server. The server is configured to receive the diagnosis request and select a model based on the vehicle data. The server is also configured to apply the selected model to the sound data to generate a response to the diagnosis request and wirelessly transmit the response to the diagnosis request to the communication device. The communication device is further configured to output at least a portion of the response on an output mechanism of the wireless communication device, the response including at least one diagnosis of the vehicle.
