Discussion for the Bosch 13618 (0601913360) Cordless Drill
My Bosch cordless drill is starting yo lose power and does not run at full speed. The batteries run my impact and sawzall fine so I have ruled out the batteries. Would the switch cause that to happen or would it be the motor? Any help would be apprecated.:)
Hi Wazrepair,
I could be one or the other. Most likely its the switch that causes that.We have test motors and switches to see which one it causing the problem and generally its the switch.But I can only guess.

Thanks for the response Dave....I have another Bosch 18v that is not a hammerdrill but I'm gonna see if that switch would work.
I know I need to replace the chuck on my Bosch cordless 18V drill model 0601913360 but I can not separate the chuck from the epicycloidal gear drive. How is it done?
I have had the same problem.
I love Bosch tools but have not been real happy about this problem.
Plus the same drill has had a set of brushes go bad, and a variable speed switch go bad.
I think it must have been built on a Tuesday after a long holiday weekend.

I have replaced the trigger and I am experiencing the slip into hammer mode.

I had too tape the hammer switch after getting aggravated on the job one day; the variable speed switch only lasted a year. Brushes need to be replaced, but still going on three years heavy if you use it overhead for long periods of time.
