Default what makes a servo gives up under load?

The servo looked like it was working ok but when I put a load on the control surface the servo would give up and not hold. At times I could move the control surface up and down with no resistance, like it was not even plugged in. Some times doing that I could feel the servo push back a little. I know when the signal wire is not connected the pos. and neg. connections don't do anything to hold the servo position. At any rate it is getting yanked and a new one installed, just trying to find an answer.
