Embodiment

In order to make technical matters to be solved by this invention, technical scheme and beneficial effect clearer, clear, below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the present invention is further elaborated.Should be appreciated that specific embodiment described herein, only in order to explain the present invention, is not intended to limit the present invention.

VIN is the abbreviation of English Vehicle Identification Number (vehicle identification code), each automobile has the VIN of, ASE(Automotive Service Excellence) standard regulation: VIN code is comprised of 17 characters, so be commonly called as 17 bit codes.The information such as the manufacturer that it has comprised vehicle, age, vehicle, body model and code, engine code and assembling place, correctly understand the VIN code of automobile, and for correctly identifying vehicle, so that correctly to diagnose and keep in repair be all very important.

Every explanation (wherein: can not comprise I, O, tri-English alphabets of Q in VIN) about VIN code:

1～3 (WMI): manufacturing plant, brand and type;

The 1st: produce country code (as L represents China)

The 2nd: automaker's code (as M represents Mitsubishi)

The 3rd: some manufacturer of car category code (be custom field, have different explanations for different manufacturers) may be used the specific brand of front 3 bit pattern coded representation:

4～8 (VDS): vehicle characteristics information

The 9th: check bit, by standard weighted calculation (referring to < < world car identification code name (VIN) Fact Book > > P21～23)

The 10th: vehicle year money (1～9 represents 2001～2009, A2010, B2011, C2012, D2013, E2014)

The 11st: assembling factory

12～17: serial number

Certainly, country variant or automobile production producer, its VIN implication has trickle difference, gives some instances and illustrates below:

The car VIN of U.S. Ford Motor Company

First: country of origin's code

Second: produce or relevant departments's code

The 3rd: vehicle class code

The 4th: occupant safety protective device code

The 5th: vehicle series code

Six～seven: vehicle body type code

The 8th: engine model code

The 9th: VIN check number code

The tenth: vehicle year money code

The 11: general assembly works code

The 12: serial number code dispatches from the factory

The Germany car VIN of BMW AG

First: country of origin's code

Second: manufacturer's code

The 3rd: vehicle and kind category code

Four～six: vehicle code

The 7th: engine model code

The 8th: occupant safety protective device code

The 9th: VIN check number code

The tenth: vehicle year money code

The 11: general assembly works code

The 12: serial number code dispatches from the factory

So, the VIN that reads some vehicle of VIN(of storing in vehicle ECU by automotive diagnostic installation can not read by software mode from vehicle ECU, can automatically input identification by manual input or the Quick Response Code of taking pictures), by the vehicle VIN to reading, resolve, determine the car system under vehicle, then to enter into corresponding car be diagnostic procedure according to analyzing car system out.

In specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 1, can realize as follows:

S102, Auto analyzer obtain the VIN information of automobile.

S104, Auto analyzer resolve and obtain manufacturer code and the car category code of automobile to VIN information.

S106, Auto analyzer are diagnosed vehicle according to the manufacturer code of automobile and the suitable diagnostic module of car category Code Selection.

Preferably, the VIN information of obtaining automobile is from vehicle ECU, to read acquisition by software mode, or by directly manually inputting or the mode of the scanning Quick Response Code of taking pictures obtains.

Preferably, to VIN information resolve be by by the VIN information getting be stored in the mode that the VIN database in Auto analyzer compares and resolve, VIN database stores the data of VIN, can upgrade and expand according to actual conditions.

When Auto analyzer is resolved when failed VIN information, by resolving failed result, show.

Wherein, Auto analyzer is integrated with the diagnostic module that adapts to the different car categories of different automakers.If this Auto analyzer does not have the diagnostic module of certain car category of integrated corresponding manufacturer, cannot diagnose, need regularly this diagnostic module to be upgraded or extension process.

In order to further facilitate understanding, as shown in Figure 2, Fig. 2 is the further refinement to embodiment concrete scheme:

S200: start.

S201: VIN information is detected automatically by Auto analyzer.

S202: judge whether VIN information is obtained successfully, if can not successful automatic acquisition, enter S203, if can successful automatic acquisition, enter S204.

S203: obtain by manual input mode.

S204: inquire about in the database of Auto analyzer.

S205: judge whether successfully resolved of VIN information, if resolve unsuccessfully, enter S208, if successfully resolved enters S206.

S206: belong to which automobile manufacturing company and determine that corresponding diagnosis vehicle is software according to parsing this vehicle.

S207: start diagnostic software, enter vehicle diagnostics, start corresponding diagnostics software module vehicle is diagnosed.

S208: finish.

Adopt the technical scheme of this embodiment, by Auto analyzer, the identification of automobile VIN information, parsing are obtained manufacturer code and the car category code of automobile, and automatically select suitable diagnostic module to diagnose vehicle based on this, the realization of this scheme, facilitated auto repair librarian use, the flow process that simplifies the operation, reaches intelligent diagnostics effect.

In addition, based on above method, as shown in Figure 3, the present invention also discloses the system of a kind of quick location vehicle diagnosis function, and this system comprises:

VIN acquisition ofinformation module 10, for obtaining the VIN information of automobile.

VINinformation analysis module 20, for resolving and obtain manufacturer code and the car category code of automobile to VIN information.

Diagnostic module is selectedmodule 30, for vehicle being diagnosed according to the manufacturer code of automobile and the suitable diagnostic module of car category Code Selection.

As a kind of preferred version, VIN acquisition ofinformation module 10 specifically for: by software mode, from vehicle ECU, read the VIN information that obtains, or by directly manually inputting or the mode of the scanning Quick Response Code of taking pictures obtains VIN information.
