Took four hours to find a phantom door fault in a 2004 Otis at a hospital in Phoenix

Was troubleshooting a Gen2 MRL that kept dropping out on random landings. Finally found a broken wire behind the car top junction box that only touched ground when the car passed the 7th floor. Felt like I was losing my mind for most of a shift. Anybody else deal with wires that only fail in one specific spot?

Did you try tracing the whole wire harness after you found it or just patch and move on?

Man, those gremlins always pick the worst spots!

Buddy of mine once spent three hours on a loose wire that only acted up in the rain.
