you dont usually, unless you happen to be carrying spare sparts in cargo.. as you dont get auto-reimbursed for those.

It happend to me, yesterday and its cos u have a HMA and a WH in ya cargo but u must have swaped them before the recharge. It always stop working when u swap them before the recharge more than likely and there for its your fault.

It's known to happen when you use your WH, then swap to HMA and try to use it while the WH still has a recharge timer...

I am pretty sure everyone is aware that switching between a wh and hma is very risky, because it very often fails. I simple fix to this would to be use one or the other, not both. It will save you a lot of headaches and comp post.

it aint because switching while still recharging, from my experience it ALWAYS happen when you swap between HMA and WH withing 1 (or 2) k from a planet/gate/gas giant

As far as I have seen it is none of the above. I have had experiences where I am in the middle of deep space with fully charged WH & HMA (I always let whichever was the last used to charge fully), and I will swap and the new device won't work unless I go through a gate, wormhole, or I log out & back in very quickly.
Its similar to the bug with jumpdrives & launching fighters or bombs or turning off an engine or generator I believe. You pretty much need to "reset" your interface from what I have seen.
Solution: Use WH to get somewhere, swap between them, then enter the WH - You will need to wait the proper 5 minutes before you can legally use your HMA on the other side (unless you pop a WH cruiser or station to get a ride, or get a WH from another station obviously) but you won't have a problem.
Alternatively, do what I usually do, wait for it to charge, swap, log out & in real quick.
