<p style="text-align:justify">&nbsp;</p>

<ol>
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal; text-align:justify">
	<h2><span style="font-size:18px"><strong>Physical damage:</strong> X-ray sensors are delicate instruments, and any physical damage can cause them to malfunction or fail completely. This could be due to sensors being dropped, impacts, or exposure to extreme temperatures.</span></h2>
	</li>
</ol>

<p style="text-align:justify">&nbsp;</p>

<ol start="2">
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal; text-align:justify">
	<h2><span style="font-size:18px"><strong>Electrical issues:</strong> Electrical problems such as short circuits, power surges, or faulty connections can also cause x-ray sensors to fail. If the sensor is not properly grounded, it can also cause electrical interference, leading to inaccurate readings.</span></h2>
	</li>
</ol>

<h2 style="text-align:justify">&nbsp;</h2>

<ol start="3">
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal; text-align:justify">
	<h2><span style="font-size:18px"><strong>Software or firmware issues:</strong> X-ray sensors rely on software or firmware to operate correctly. If there are bugs or compatibility issues with the software or firmware, the sensor may not work as intended. This can also happen if the sensor is not calibrated correctly or if the calibration is off due to software errors.</span></h2>
