Most problems are being solved by turning it off and on again.
The navy manual for troubleshooting equipment in the field includes "lift 3-6 inches and drop"
Percussive maintenance can help sometimes. It's not a permanent fix but you can't always do the right fix in the middle of the ocean. Things it can help with: dislodging debris in mechanical components, reseating electrical connections that are corroding, and making yourself feel better.
High velocity decommissioning also satisfies that last item.
To be fair, you may not always want a permanent fix for everything. Mostly because the most permanent solution will always be a temporary one. :v
