A diagnosis system for materials handling vehicles leads service personnel step-by-step through diagnosis and repair of malfunctions within the vehicle. Malfunctions are assigned corresponding event codes so that when a malfunction is detected, its corresponding event code is displayed. The event codes uniquely identify systems of the vehicle in which malfunctions have occurred by having the event codes for a given vehicle system all start with the same number. Thus, the technician knows from the event code what system needs to be diagnosed/repaired and what tools and probable parts will be needed. The event code is used to access diagnosis information identifying the portion of the vehicle wherein the malfunction has occurred, the components which caused the malfunction and, preferably, provides a pictogram of that portion of the vehicle. The technician advances to the malfunctioning portion of the vehicle where another pictorial depiction of the components of that portion of the vehicle assists in locating the components.

L'invention concerne un système de diagnostic pour véhicules de manutention permettant au personnel de service d'effectuer pas à pas un diagnostic et de relever les dérangements. Les fonctionnements défectueux reçoivent un code d'événement, ce qui permet d'afficher le code lorsque l'anomalie correspondante est décelée. Chaque code identifie de manière unique les systèmes du véhicule affectés, car les codes d'événement pour un système donné commencent tous par le même numéro. Ainsi, le technicien sait à partir du code quel système doit recevoir un diagnostic/une réparation et quels outils et pièces de rechange probables sont nécessaires. On utilise le code d'événement pour accéder à l'information de diagnostic identifiant la partie du véhicule concernée ainsi que les éléments à l'origine de l'anomalie et, de préférence, il apparaît également un pictogramme de la partie touchée. Le technicien progresse jusqu'à la partie considérée, où un autre pictogramme des éléments de ladite partie l'aident à localiser les éléments visés.
