Method and device for visualizing a vehicle repairing
First Claim
1. A method of providing image data for visualizing at least one of a defective part, a repair sequence, and a maintenance service sequence of a road-bound vehicle, the method comprising the acts of:
- providing digitized data of at least two components of the vehicle, said digitized data being capable of being visualized;
providing digitized data of an arrangement of the at least two components of the vehicle relative to one another, said digitized data being capable of being visualized;
operating a first selection element for selecting a first procedural sequence from a plurality of procedural sequences; and
based on the operating act, providing image data of a first step of the first procedural sequence and, subsequently, providing image data of a second step of the first procedural sequence,wherein the first procedural sequence includes at least one repair sequence, which includes;
illustrating on a display the removal of a defective first electronic component;
detecting a correct installation of a new first electronic component via the vehicle'"'"'s diagnostic system;
transmitting the detection of the correct installation of a new first electronic component to a data processing system; and
displaying the correct installation by checking the operation of the new first electronic component by the diagnostic system and transmitting the information to the data processing system.

Abstract
A method is provided for providing image data for visualizing a defective part and/or a repair process and/or a maintenance service of a road-bound vehicle, in particular a car or motorcycle. The aim is to reduce the translation costs for repair manuals. The method is characterized by the following: digital data is provided for at least two vehicle parts, in particular CAD data, vector data or another form of digital data suitable for visualizing is provided; digital data on the location of said two vehicle parts with respect to each other is also provided; a first selection element is provided for selecting a first repair operation from a plurality thereof, data, i.e., image data of the first stage of said first repair operation is provided, afterwards image data of the second stage of the first repair operation is provided.
