Hi guys, I would really appreciate your help in some fundamental FMEA issues. In my current role I am responsible for a product serviceability, and as such I tried to push the electronics engineers to do a board FMEA (at block level not per transistor) where delectability will actually indicate our capability to identify the root cause by any means (Led, SW....).
Unfortunately I got some very angry faces and numerous angry remarks from the product team members, saying I am adding work that contributes nothing, and that usually they just sat down looked at the block diagram of the boards and thought of the tests they needed.
First of all I wanted to know if the FMEA is the right tool, or maybe I am barking up the wrong tree (although it does seem natural to use FMEA for detection of failure modes in the field).
Second if anyone knows of another tool to do this or of an example where FMEA was used in this manner I would love an example.
Again the end goal is to reduce down time and pinpoint the problematic component.
Thanks in advance.
