Hi, I’m having trouble with my Dewalt framing nail gun. It won’t even wind up to prepare to fire. I’ve opened it up and the firing pin seems to be all the way back.
I’ve tried multiple batteries.
The firing pin light is on, but I can’t see why it should be. I’ve tried pulling the firing pin release lever multiple times, but it’s loose, not tight like I’ve noticed it is when giving a true indication in the past.
Normally I’d just take it to a repairer but we’re under lock down of course.
Any ideas?
Use the Allen wrench in the side of the magazine.
Undo the two bolts at the nose that hold the nose to the magazine.
As soon as you release the tension, the driver should slide back.
You may have a bent nail to pull out.

Sounds like your spring is bad.
