What's involved
What this repair actually is.
Faults that only appear sometimes are the hardest electrical problems to catch, because the car often behaves perfectly at the shop. We use scan-tool data logging, wiggle-testing of harnesses and connectors, and moisture and heat simulation to force the fault to show itself and trace it to a specific wire, connector, or module.
