I think maybe spoilerspace is in order here.

Well, spiritually, Tech Spirits will not only fear the
Junker but might even despise him. I'd probably treat
him as if he had Gun Spirit Taint, except even they
don't like being around him. I can't imagine any tech
spirits wanting to work with a guy who rips apart tech
souls to build another device. You could also say that
the Mute system somehow messes with the nodes and
folds and whatnot in the brain that allow the Junker
to communicate with the spirits. I'd lean towards the
first method mysle, however.
