Just picked up a DHR242 18V SDS drill as a repair project for next to nothing.

I like to think I am a pretty hands on chap, work on cars motorbikes, carpenter by trade and would like to learn a bit about repairing power tools, this will be my first project of this type.

 

So have checked battery which is fine.

 

when you pull the trigger it makes a noise, but moves a bit but doesn’t fully revolve. 

 

Have seen a video on how to dis assemble, and have a multi meter, thats as much as I know what to do.

 

sort of guessing that when u pull the trigger makes a noise and slight movement guessing switch ok…

 

What could I test from here on??

Best thing about this new service is that you are never placed on hold and get to talk to real repairmen in the US.
