Table saw would not come on. Power switch tested good.
1. Unplug power
2. Remove saw blade
3. Tilt saw with power switch up
4. Remove backing off power switch
5. Remove cable clamps and green ground wires. This will help in access the connector easier.
6. Unplug connectors from the motor to the power switch
7. Remove motor bracket mounting bolts
8. Remove black brush caps and pull out brushes. Replace if necessary. Put everything back together and verify problem solved. If your brush tubes are melted you will need to continue.
9. Remove 4 screws from motor housing.
10. Pull motor out
11. Remove 2 screws which holds the black plastic bracket and remove bracket.
12. Remove coil pack. Disconnect black and white wires from brush tube. Set coil pack down.
13. Remove old brush tube by tapping the back side. They come out through the top. I used a pry bar, gave it a few taps, then used a flat tip to remove it. Remember the position of the electrical connector.
Note: My new brush tubes came with the electrical connector straight. You will have to bend them 90 deg AFTER you install them.
14. Install new brush tube exactly how it came out. Tube electrical connector should be towards the inside Tap with mallet.
15. Use needle nose pliers to bend tube connector 90 deg. Use same pliers to connect black and white wires. DO NOT INSTALL new brushes until you install the motor first.
16. Install coil pack and black plastic bracket secure with 2 screws. Make sure you have enough slack on your green ground wire.
17. Install motor. Tap with mallet. Then turn more and look inside motor housing to make sure the spinning motor doesn't touch brush tube wire or connector. If it does, bend tube connector until it is clear of the motor.
18. If motor spins freely, install 4 motor screws and green ground wire.
19. Install new brushing and black caps.
20. Put back together and verify problem solved.
