A method for diagnosing an input power supply providing power to a motor includes: applying, using the input power supply, a power stimulus to the motor; measuring a response to the power stimulus; calculating, based on the response to the power stimulus, a metric indicative of a status of the input power supply; determining a degraded condition of the input power supply based on the metric indicative of the status of the input power supply; and performing an action in response to determining a degraded condition of the input power supply. The action may include one or more of: limiting an output power supplied to the motor; generating a diagnostic trouble code; and/or notifying an operator of the degraded condition of the input power supply.
