This is my repair of a Dewalt XR Combi Drill (DCD785) After 3 years of use the drill had become intermittent and throwing out sparks! It was also heavily clogged with debris and overall in need of servicing to prolong its life.
The first step was to strip down, clean all the internals and confirm that the brushes were indeed worn and that the issue wasn’t bad contacts or a faulty controller.
New branded Dewalt brushes fitted, gearing and switch mechanisms re-lubricated, then re-assembly and successfully confirmed working. Dewalt brushless is the new norm for power tools, however its still worthwhile getting your tools serviced when required to improve their working lifespan.
