Dear Ralf,

Troubleshooting is fun for a real technician but not for a manager.
The naming and blaming starts when after a very short time the cause cannot be found.
Counting to ten helps and after 10, clear and logical thinking is the only way to solve the situation.
The 5 “W”s, you mention can be a good guideline.
However, I found only 3 “W”s
What
When
Why

Using the first “W”
What are the two missing “W”s?
Who?
?

Have a nice day
Teus

Excellent. I may need to add few words. Trouble free running of an equipment starts at the design stage itself.
The following are must for trouble free of any equipment.
1. Good Design
2. Good erection & Commissioning
3. Good Operation
4. Good Maintenance.

A good maintenance engineer should have a very basic knowledge about other three fields also, to find out out where the mistake could have happened.

Thanks & regards,
