Abstract :
Every motor user is faced with the fact that someday his motor will fail. Due to the destructive nature of most failures, it is not easy to determine the cause. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a procedure for analyzing these failures and determining the cause so that further steps can be taken to eliminate them.
