satisfied customer-unhappy with your web site
ordering on your website was problematic. Could NOT finalize the order. Called your order center and the order was promptly and efficiently handled by a lady whose name is, I believe, Mona. Your instructional videos are great and eliminate the guess work in making a repair that I have not done before.

Easy fix. I did not know the new motor already has the brush set in place ( I also ordered a set of brushes). Now I have a back up set of brushes. After taking the drill casing 1/2 off, I used my cell to take pictures just in case I had problems getting the drill back together. I will say this as a piece of advice for all: Any time you remove any screws from a plastic case, when you are putting the tool back together you should always first turn the screw backwards until you feel a slight click from the screw trying to seat itself. Then change direction to clockwise to drive the screw in. This will keep you from striping the plastic case screw hole.

Just remove the 4 rear screws on the Dewalt drill remove the electrical connectors. Brushes are tough getting out and back in but you need that to be the case. Use needle nose pliers and keep firm pressure. Ensure to keep the guides lined up. I smashed one of mine and had to fix the guide so the brush kit slid back into the guide. Easy repair that saves a lot of money. Runs like new again.

Screwdriver, hex key
Parts Used
It was simple. I removed the 4 rear drill housing screws using a hex key. I then removed the two wires that clip to the brush boxes. I then used a screw driver to pry out the 2 old brush box assemblies. I cleaned the commutator with a narrow strip of emery cloth and put in the 2 new brush box assemblies. I reconnected the wires, put the rear drill housing back on and fastened it in place with the 4 hex screws.
Look at the new brush boxes before you try prying out the old brush boxes so you can see how the new boxes clip in. It will help you to understand how to pry out the old boxes.

Parts Used
Attempted the lease expensive repair (new brushes) to resolve the problem, which it did. Opening the drill side was easy with proper Torx key, and brush replacement was straight forward, simply put back as they were. Reassembling was easy if you assure the tabs on the motor (one on each side) are aligned with the pockets in the housing covers. When you first open verify the position of the transmission switch and the forward / reverse switch as these items need to be in same alignment for the housing covers to seat properly.
