System and method for dynamically-changeable displayable pages with vehicle service information
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a computer server, data indicating a vehicle symptom;
determining, at the server by searching a computer-readable database coupled to the server based on the vehicle symptom, a most-likely cause of the vehicle symptom;
determining, at the server by searching the database, a most-probable component associated with the most-likely cause of the vehicle symptom;
determining, at the server by searching the database, a component-type identifier associated with the most-probable component, wherein the component-type identifier is one of a plurality of component type identifiers identified within the database, wherein the plurality of component-type identifiers stored at the database comprise at least two of an electrical component-type, a mechanical component-type, an electro-mechanical component-type, an electro-pneumatic component-type, or an electro-hydraulic component-type;
determining, at the server by searching the database, a subset of information categories from among a set of information categories, wherein the subset of information categories is associated with the determined component-type identifier;
determining, at the server by searching the database, data to populate in a first displayable page, wherein the first displayable page pertains to the subset of information categories and to the vehicle symptom; and
generating, at the server, the first displayable page including the data to populate in the first displayable page.

Abstract
A method and system for generating a displayable page with a display card is described. A computer server receives data indicating a vehicle symptom and searches a computer-readable database to determine a most-likely cause of the vehicle symptom, a most-probable component associated with the most-likely cause, a component-type identifier associated with the most-probable component, a subset of information categories from among a set of information categories associated with at least one component-type identifier, and data to populate the display card. The server generates the displayable page including the display card and the data to populate in the display card. The server transmits the displayable page to a display device for displaying the displayable page on a display screen. The server receives data indicating selection of an action trigger in the display card occurred and responsively provides the display device with data to update the display card or another displayable page.

19. A system comprising:
-
a computer-readable database containing data to populate in a first displayable page to be displayed at a display of a display device; and a computer server coupled to the computer-readable database and programmed to; (i) receive, from the display device by way of a network coupled to the computer server, data indicating a vehicle symptom; (ii) search the database to determine a most-likely cause of the vehicle symptom; (iii) search the database to determine a most-probable component associated with the most-likely cause of the vehicle symptom; (iv) search the database to determine a component-type identifier associated with the most-probable component, wherein the component-type identifier is one of a plurality of component type identifiers identified within the database, wherein the plurality of component-type identifiers stored at the database comprise at least two of an electrical component-type, a mechanical component-type, an electro-mechanical component-type, an electro-pneumatic component-type, or an electro-hydraulic component-type; (v) search the database to determine a subset of information categories from among a set of information categories, wherein the subset of information categories is associated with the determined component-type identifier; (vi) search the database to determine data to populate in the first displayable page, wherein the first displayable page pertains to the subset of information categories and to the vehicle symptom; and (vii) generate the first displayable page including the data to populate in the first displayable page. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
