I first heard this joke (or some following the same format anyways) in the MST3K episode for "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank." I think about it pretty often.

The issue was later found to be from sunlight streaming into the spacecraft through a tiny gap.

This would be so frustrating. The problem solving process would be a nightmare.
