Maintenance is the process by which a robot continues to function as intended. Many times in fembot fiction or film this trope will be used to reveal a character as an android. This process can consist of something as mundane as a simple software patch or update, to fully disassembling the robot and replacing parts.  
'''Maintenance''' is an ensemble of actions and processes that ensure the continued operation of a [[Robot|robot]] or [[Fembot|fembot]]. This includes a range of procedures including check-ups, servicing, repairs or replacement of parts, consumables or software. Maintenance may be regularly scheduled or occur after a [[Malfunction|malfunction]] or [[Damage|damage]] to the machine, by which point it may constitute '''repairs''' depending on severity.


Often times the maintenance will be in response to a small malfunction or minor damage. However, sometimes maintenance will be started simply to keep an android "up to date." The physical aspects of maintenance, such as opening a panel to access a data port, removing a body part, or any kind of disassembly can be done either by a human, another android, or character themselves. Many times if a robot is performing maintenance on themselves they will require some small assistance from a computer terminal or automated system.

A fembot being maintained in the 1976 film Futureworld.

Maintenance is an ensemble of actions and processes that ensure the continued operation of a robot or fembot. This includes a range of procedures including check-ups, servicing, repairs or replacement of parts, consumables or software. Maintenance may be regularly scheduled or occur after a malfunction or damage to the machine, by which point it may constitute repairs depending on severity.

The physical aspects of maintenance, such as opening a panel to access a data port, removing a body part, or any kind of disassembly can be done either by a human, another android, or character themselves. Many times if a robot is performing maintenance on themselves they will require some small assistance from a computer terminal or automated system.

In fiction

  • In Mad Mechacow's Tales of Syntech, fembot Amanda is brought backstage by tester Gina after she failed to respond properly to a question.
Gina sighed again as she guided Amanda to a door marked "ROBOTICS LAB". Inside were clusters of computers and robotic assembly equipment, including stations to custom work metals and circuitry boards. Moving about the room were women wearing hospital-type uniforms and carrying tools and equipment. In the center of the lab were several tables.
One had a beautiful pair of female legs, except that they were connected to nothing. Wires ran from the exposed core of the legs, and components and circuitry shone through large, square gaps in the otherwise perfectly smooth skin. Even the toes looked well articulated, realistically soft and pink. They wiggled and moved as a female technician gently teased them with a feather. She looked around to be sure no one was watching before gently licking the toes, and letting her mouth suckle one, as the data streamed into a terminal nearby.
A second table held a woman's head. From the neck down it ran into a series of circuitboards and smaller computers. A program was running, and every once in a while the girl would smile, frown, or make a different face as her systems were tested. Out came her dry tongue as she made a "yuck" face. The woman watching the data peeled back the side of her face revealing the same electronics as were in Amanda's head. she carefully used a small tool to adjust the girl's facial motors and articulation.
