    摘要: A computer based technician terminal is connected to a vehicle being serviced using an assembly line data link (ALDL) connection from an on-board computer. The data link provides status information and fault codes. The technician is led through various procedures. During set up, the technician connects an ALDL cable from the terminal to the vehicle, the vehicle indentification number (VIN) is entered and vehicle options are identified. A fault detection procedure (FDP) in the terminal detects vehicle malfunctions by interrogating data received (via the ALDL) from the on-board computer. A fault analysis procedure (FAP), using the fault codes from a table as arguments, does a sequential compare against the contents of a fault analysis table containing fault codes. In a fault sequencing procedure (FSP), for each fault code passed by the FAP, there is a list containing the name(s) of one or more isolation procedures. A fault isolation procedure (FIP) is provided for electrical or electronic components on the vehicle to perform a complete test of the related part using a multifunction test probe. Fault repair procedures guide the technician through the proper steps to accomplish the repair, replacement or adjustment required.

    摘要: In a computerized automotive vehicle diagnostic system, a test probe cable is attached to individual components and consists of a multiple conductor cable which is attached ultimately to the component and to a computer in a technician terminal. Where the probe cable enters the technician terminal the conductors contained within it are fed into a programmable crosspoint switch which is controlled by a microcontroller. Test functions are provided by three programmable resources: (1) A program controlled multimeter, (2) A program controlled DC voltage source and ground sink; and (3) the microcontroller itself which receives and interprets commands from the computer and controls the various probe elements based upon the test commands received.
