A procedure and apparatus for locating faults in the machine elements of a paper machine and in their functioning, wherein variations in the paper characteristics are continuously observed, the periodicity of the variations is recorded and the periodicity of the variations in the paper characteristics is compared with the periodicity in the functioning of the paper machine's machine elements. The apparatus comprises observation members (1-11) for observing the variations occurring in the paper characteristics; synchronizing pick-ups (43-53) disposed on machine elements (13-22) of the paper machine for observing the periodicity of the functioning of said machine elements; a recording means (40) for recording the periodicity of the variations in paper characteristics and the periodicity in the functioning of the machine elements; and a data processing unit (41) for comparing the periodicity of the variations in paper characteristics and that in the functioning of the machine elements.
