Explanation:
Seria mejor poner ' vuelva funcionar' pues esta frase inluye tanto ' estar activo/a como ' se reactive'. Asi se evita el conflicto de ideas.

se reactive


Explanation:
In this sentence, "back on line" means that the detector heaters start supplying heat again, after we start feeding them with current. So I don't really like "vuelva a funcionar", because it's not that they were not functioning; they were just not activated.
