Biggie Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 I would guess your brushes are wore out. They are pretty cheap and usually pretty easy to change as they are designed to wear out overtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twilliams0298@gmail.com Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Thanks it's brushless though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggie Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 In that case I have no idea haha. That's one thing I dont like about brushless tools they seem to have more electrical gremlins. I don't own any makita tools but I know with dewalt and milwaukee brushless tools if you have electrical problems you pretty much have to replace the whole electrical assembly.

ToolBane Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Yeah the problem is definitely electrical and replacing everything is generally going to be cheaper than troubleshooting to isolate the problem. Something simple refusing to turn on is a really nondescript problem too. Not the kind of thing that can be diagnosed by random people on the internet remotely.
