1. In a hearing instrument including a plurality of transducers, a self-diagnostics system, comprising:

  • a detection circuitry operable to monitor the functional status of at least one transducer by measuring an energy level output of the transducer and comparing the energy level output to a pre-determined threshold level;

    the detection circuitry being further operable to generate an error message output if the measured energy level output of the transducer falls below the pre-determined threshold level; and

    a memory device coupled to the detection circuitry and operable to store the error message output generated by the detection circuitry.
