What are the problems that may arise from ineffective fault finding

Could induce further faults


Safety concern on flights


Depletes spares stores


Wastes time/man hours


Wastes money


Decreases moral/decreases aircrew ground crew relations


Bad public relations

What is the definition of effective fault finding

Effective fault finding is to provide a logical, systematic approach to isolating a specific cause if a fault using all available information. The aim is to locate the cause of the fault as quickly as possible and rectify the fault correctly the first time. Aka troubleshooting.
