Troubleshooting Guides

Fault Fixer is the essential troubleshooting companion. These diagnostic manuals are built for professionals, mechanics, and builders who need to solve real electrical problems in the field. Written by IPC/WHMA-A-620 certified experts, each title focuses on isolating faults, tracing root causes, and applying reliable, standards-based fixes across aircraft, automotive, marine, and e-bike systems.

Aircraft Wiring Troubleshooting & Diagnostic
When something electrical goes wrong in the air, the margin for error is zero. Unlike shallow advice that only says to “check your grounds,” this guide provides complete root-cause analysis, step-by-step solutions, and real-world prevention techniques. All content is grounded in IPC/WHMA-A-620 standards and verified failure cases from experimental aircraft, avionics retrofits, and light sport builds.

Automotive Wiring Troubleshooting & Diagnostic
If your wiring system is acting up and you are tired of guessing, this guide gives you everything you need to find and fix the problem the right way. This is not a general electrician’s guide. It is a deep reference built for enthusiasts and professionals working with switched 12V circuits, relays, fused power feeds, and high-current loads. Every section is field-tested, and every fault mode is backed by real diagnostic methods.

Marine Wiring Troubleshooting & Diagnostic
This is a professional-grade diagnostic manual for identifying and fixing electrical failures in marine vessel wiring systems. Built for technicians, DIY builders, and marine electricians, this guide focuses on the real failure modes that cause navigation loss, bilge pump failures, signal interference, or full system shutdowns.

E-Bike Wiring Troubleshooting & Diagnostic
A professional manual for diagnosing and repairing electrical faults in high-performance e-bikes and e-motos, including models from ONYX, Talaria, Sur-ron, Lectric, and Aventon. Designed for field technicians, DIY builders, and system integrators, this guide focuses on real-world failures at the harness level. You’ll learn how to isolate and correct power delivery issues, sensor faults, connector failures, signal interference, and environmental damage using field-tested methods.
📘 What You’ll Learn in Every Troubleshooting Guide:
- How to analyze voltage drop and resistance paths
- Methods to isolate signal loss and data line faults
- Diagnosis of intermittent power issues and startup failures
- Correction strategies for EMI, ground loops, and thermal faults
- System-specific testing procedures and recovery steps
