When you are floating along on a stable orbit the engines are off, so it's quite hard to have a failure in this context.

Maybe the failure occurs as you are initiating acceleration burn, while you are in stable orbit.

They could fail to ignite if you were attempting a burn from a stable orbit into another orbit.
