Question

Have any systems on any Mars rovers failed (even partially) as a result of a dust storm?

There is the obvious problem of loss of solar power, but the failures there are the result of loss of power. Here I'd like to ask about a system issue directly caused by the storm and the dust in it. These might include contamination, mechanical interference, electrostatic charging, abrasion, fouled electrical connectors or bearings...

below: from PIA22486 "A self-portrait of NASA's Curiosity rover taken on Sol 2082 (June 15, 2018). A Martian dust storm has reduced sunlight and visibility at the rover's location in Gale Crater."

It also includes a rare view by the Mast Camera of the rover itself, revealing a thin layer of dust on Curiosity's deck.

Answer 1

Not specifically during a single storm, but:

One interesting case of a partial failure of a system is that of the optical calibration targets on Opportunity, Spirit and Curiosity. They were frequently photographed by on-board cameras (Pancam for Spirit and Opportunity, Mastcam for Curiosity) and the images used to calibrate the colour and brightness of the data to a 'true-colour' standard.

Accumulation of dust on the surface of the targets made this calibration more difficult and, as a result, it's thought that the quality of the images suffered.

Fortunately, occasional wind helped keep the targets relatively clean. Furthermore, since the targets are perfectly positioned for imaging, the observation of dust accumulation rates helped in developing atmospheric dust models.
