If you flipped it over and ran it upside down it would work for some reason.
This kind of troubleshooting is what leads to the practices of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
Had an old workplace where everyone knew that the servers needed blood to function. You would reach into the cabinet, make your fix with absolutely no trouble and take your hands out to find a huge gash in your hand that you should have felt when you received it. No pain, just bleeding.
At a location, their servers wouldn’t work unless there was candy on top of the server rack and at least one stuffed animal in the room. I was jealous of their technomancy.
I had this but with my 3d printer. I stared into the chassis for a good 2 minutes looking for the varnish or lubricant that had dyed my hand red. Then I realised!
First its flipping upside down then it's gluing boxes of chicken bones to the side of radars then for the emperor
