ADS-B Mandate – ATCs Responsible for Deaths?

Heard that CZ302 went through Aust airspace last night at FL280 SYD-CAN trying to dodge the weather it should have been able to clear at cruise level. ADS-B failed on inbound flight. I'm sure attending to malfunctioning ADS-B equipment was high on their list when trying to turn the aircraft around in SYD and get out before the curfew. How accessible is the unit? Can it just be unplugged and replaced in a jiffy? Is there a component that is the most likely cause that can easily be fixed?
