Faults (7)

I believe the answer is:

defects

'faults' is the definition.
(I know this)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for defects that I've seen before include "Flaws" , "Abandons cause" , "defaults" , "Shortcomings; changes sides" , "Faults" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Evening Standard and The Telegraph.
