English term or phrase: DU snag
On numerous occasions when performing maintenance or refueling the helicopter, the battery is cycled 'on' to monitor fuel quantity.
After the completion of the task, the Flight Ops department will occasionally get a notification that the System has been activated and the helicopter is overdue.
The pilot, Chief Pilot, and the ROC are all notified of this when the battery was just cycled on and off.
The reporter believes that this could be similar to the recent DU snag that Bell called "a software nuisance glitch."

Anomalie d'affichage
Explanation:
I prefer the term "anomalie" it's more nuanced and refers more to a kind of bug/glitch than a fault that can lead to a failure of the DU.

In accordance with what David mentioned and commented.

neutral  david henrion: c'est sans doute cela mais je dirais pas "défaut" qui impliquerait selon moi une panne plus ou moins facilement identifiable, mais "anomalie".

  -> Je dirais que c'est une panne causée par un bug... (État anormal d'un système ou de l'un de ses éléments le mettant dans l'impossibilité d'accomplir une fonction requise.)
