Core distinction What is the difference between a battery failure mode and a failure cause? The failure mode is how the item loses function; the cause is the mechanism or condition that creates that loss. Example: separator edge shrinkage is the mode; excessive thermal exposure or process stress may be causes. Objection We already passed one abuse test, so the FMEA control is covered. A review team wants to close a thermal-risk action after a single successful run. Your line A pass is evidence, not a control by itself. Which prevention, detection, or mitigation keeps this failure mode from escaping…
