Totalmente de acuerdo con esta opción, siempre la utilizo en mis traducciones de manuales técnicos. Muchas veces, dependiendo del contexto, he optado también por "detección y resolución de problemas", si el texto también señala el proceso de identificación de la falla.
megane_wang May 21, 2010:
Resolución de problemas Aunque es equivalente a la opción propuesta, tal vez me gusta esta por un efecto añadido: puesto que "resolución" también significa "actividad, prontitud, viveza" (RAE), en cierto modo me sugiere (aunque realmente no figura en la definición) la actitud proactiva que parece que le falta a la versión en Español, tal como señala Cinnamon Nolan en los comentarios.

disagree Perla Guzman Martinez (X) : I want to add that it refers more to the Act of finding the source of the problem or the act of looking for a solution much more than reffering to having already found the solution. I would go for: Analizando el problema

agree neilmac : For me, it includes the notion of "seeking and finding" solutions.
