Abstract
A diagnostic condition indexed kit for implementing a do-it-yourself automotive repair includes at least one replacement part compatible with a specified vehicle, at least one tool for installing the replacement part(s) in the specified vehicle, and packaging containing the replacement part(s) and the tool(s). The packaging may include an indicator, accessible from outside the packaging, referencing the specified vehicle and a diagnostic condition associated with the specified vehicle that is repairable by installation of the replacement part(s). A scan tool or app-loaded mobile device may be operable to communicate with an onboard computer of a vehicle and receive one or more repair codes associated with the diagnostic condition and vehicle-identifying information from the onboard computer and identify the kit based on the received repair code(s) and vehicle-identifying information. A server may match the repair code(s) and vehicle diagnostic information to a kit identifier.
