Whats causes the self adjusters on the rear brakes to not work and how do you fit it?

Seems they dont work on a large number of the luxes.

Is there a particular thing that goes wrong, or to look for?

mine seem 2 work ok just pull the brakes apart and fully unwind the adjuster and clean it up with sumthin like carby cleaner or wotever will clean that crap out of the threads and then reassemble it but put a small amount of neversexe on the thread thats wot i did with mine and they seem 2 work
