This error was being silenced when decoding the output from lsblk in hw_diags.py > DiskObj > get_details() function:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xab in position 243: invalid start byte

Need to change json.loads(result.stdout.decode()) calls to json.loads(result.stdout.decode('utf-8', errors='ignore')) Better to have incomplete data than no data IMO
