troubleshot

Diagnosed and repaired

Troubleshot is the past tense of troubleshoot—to identify and fix problems in a system, device, or process.

The word comes from technical contexts like electronics and machinery but applies broadly: We troubleshot the network issues all afternoon.

She troubleshot the software until she found the bug.

Some speakers use troubleshooted instead, though troubleshot is more established.
