Technical Background Due to insufficient pressure of the carbon brushes to the motor commutator in the spoiler drive motor a loss of contact may occur and cause intermittent or permanent loss of spoiler operation. Figure 2 shows the spoiler drive motor area of brush to commutator contact. Figure 2. Cutaway view of the motor brush to commutator area.
