Abstract
A failure diagnostic information generating apparatus includes a repair information acquiring unit that acquires repair information indicating the content of repair or replacement conducted for a vehicle malfunction or a cause of the malfunction; an malfunction-time vehicle information acquiring unit that acquires malfunction-time vehicle information indicating a vehicle state detected when the malfunction occurs; an instruction information generating unit that generates instruction information, usable for future repair or replacement, on the basis of the repair information and the malfunction-time vehicle information; and a recurrence information acquiring unit that acquires recurrence information indicating whether the malfunction has recurred after the repair or replacement. It is determined, using the recurrence information, whether the malfunction has recurred after the repair or replacement. On the basis of the determination result, the instruction information generating unit determines whether to generate instruction information or whether to use generated instruction information for future repair or replacement.

18. A failure diagnostic information generating method comprising:
-
acquiring repair information that indicates the content of repair or component replacement conducted in connection with a malfunction of a vehicle or a cause of the malfunction; acquiring malfunction-time vehicle information that indicates a vehicle state detected when the malfunction occurs; acquiring recurrence information that indicates whether the malfunction, that has once resolved by the repair or component replacement of the vehicle, has recurred after the repair or component replacement of the vehicle; and when it is determined, on the basis of the recurrence information, that the malfunction has not recurred, generating instruction information usable for future repair or component replacement on the basis of the repair information and the malfunction-time vehicle information.

21. A failure diagnostic information generating apparatus comprising:
-
repair information acquiring device that acquires repair information that indicates the content of repair or component replacement conducted in connection with a malfunction of a vehicle or a cause of the malfunction; malfunction-time vehicle information acquiring device that acquires malfunction-time vehicle information, the malfunction-time vehicle information indicating a vehicle state detected when the malfunction occurs; instruction information generating device that generates instruction information, usable for future repair or component replacement, on the basis of the repair information and the malfunction-time vehicle information; and recurrence information acquiring device that acquires recurrence information that indicates whether the malfunction, that has once resolved by the repair or component replacement of the vehicle, has recurred after the repair or component replacement of the vehicle, wherein when it is determined, on the basis of the recurrence information, that the malfunction has not recurred after the repair or component replacement of the vehicle, the instruction information generating device generates the instruction information on the basis of the repair information and malfunction-time vehicle information that are connected with the malfunction that has not recurred or determines to use the instruction information for future repair or component replacement, the instruction information being generated by the instruction information generating device on the basis of the repair information and malfunction-time vehicle information that are connected with the malfunction that has not recurred. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 20, 22, 23)
