A method for operating a maintenance assistance system comprising a camera, a heads-up display, a memory and a processor communicatively coupled to the camera, the heads-up display and the memory, the method comprising:

• receiving, by the processor, an indication of a component;
• determining, by the processor, a location of the component based upon data from the camera and maintenance task data stored in the memory;
• generating, by the processor, graphical data based upon a maintenance step associated with the component;
• and
• outputting, by the processor, the generated graphical data to the heads-up display.

A computer-readable medium storing instructions, which when executed by a processor, operate a maintenance assistance system comprising the processor, a camera, a heads-up display, and a memory, the instructions causing the processor to:

• determine a component to be serviced;
• determine a location of the component based upon data from the camera and the maintenance task data stored in the memory;
• generate graphical data based upon a maintenance step associated with the component;
• and
• output the generated graphical data to the heads-up display.
