It was reported by (b)(6) that during in-house engineering evaluation, it was determined that the small battery drive device was not running in oscillating mode.The device was disassembled, and the electric motor and electronic control unit (ecu) were measured separately to identify where the failure persisted.After the measurements, it was concluded that the malfunction was related to the ecu.It was determined that the control unit did not pass testing in the oscillating mode.It was determined that the device did not show any changes, whether the mode switch was in oscillation or on position.When two triggers were pressed together, it was determined that the device changed only in the rotating direction.It was further determined that the anodized surfaces of the device were used up.It was observed that the device had corrosion/rusting/pitting, and it ran in an unexpected direction/mode and would not oscillate.It was further determined that the device failed pretest for general condition, check the off/oscillation/on switch mode function, check the oscillation angle, check compatibility between colibri i and colibri ii and check the function with electric pen drive console.It was noted in the service order that the device was making strange sounds while running.This event did not occur during surgery.There was no patient involvement.There were no reports of injuries, medical intervention or prolonged hospitalization.All available information has been disclosed.If additional information should available, a supplemental medwatch will be submitted accordingly.
