What was found
SUBMITTER STATED THIS IS ABOUT THE 4TH STARTER THAT HAS FAILED IN THE LAST 2 YEARS OUT OF 3 AIRCRAFT. THE STARTER BRUSH WIRE ALWAYS BREAKS OFF NEXT TO WHERE IT IS WELDED. SUBMITTER RECOMMENDS DIFFERENT METHOD OF ATTACHING STARTER BRUSH WIRES (SCREW MAYBE). SUSPECT WIRE HARDENS NEXT TO WELD AND INSTEAD OF FLEXING, IT WORKS BACK AND FORTH UNTIL IT BREAKS.
