NON-STARTING ENGINE REMOTE DIAGNOSTIC
First Claim
1. An engine diagnostic system comprising:
- an engine and a control system having a controller operatively connected to the engine;
a monitoring system having a measurement device operatively connected to the engine;
a diagnostic system operatively connected to the engine; and
a communication system configured to send and receive data from a remote location,wherein the diagnostic system is configured to implement a non-starting engine diagnostic procedure, at least a portion of which is performed while the engine is cranking, and to transmit data generated during the engine diagnostic procedure to the remote location through the communication system.

11. A method of diagnosing a non-starting engine comprising:
-
sending a signal to a diagnostic system operatively connected to an engine, the signal sent through a communication system configured to send and receive data from a remote location; implementing a non-starting engine diagnostic procedure in response to the signal, wherein at least a portion of the non-starting engine diagnostic procedure is performed while the engine is cranking; obtaining data generated during the non-starting engine diagnostic procedure related to the non-starting engine; and transmitting the data to the remote location through the communication system. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
