Easy repair
Less than a couple of minutes to replace. You just have to remember to push the brush in to where it catches on the motor in its slot before trying to screw the cap on.

Bought Porter Cable 690 Series router "at an auction that "wouldn't start".

Saw a 690 Series Porter Cable router at an auction that wouldn't start. Noticed that it was missing carbon brushes and caps. Replaced them and boom, it started. Thus, was able to get a router, plunge router accessory, and another adjustable base for $80.00. Was able to use your site to identify the correct replacement parts, install them and obtain an excellent tool for a boat load of savings.

I did not complete the repair/replacement because the brush caps sent didn't fit my porter cable router but I eventually found ones that did fit at a Dewalt/Black and Decker repair/parts store in California. Just a simple screw in cap screw to capture the brush spring end. I kept the ones sent because they were relatively inexpensive and not cost effective to send them back plus I have another tool that they will work on if need be.

I worked, sweated, toiled and even said a few unmentionable expletives as I simply screwed the replacement cap in place and snugged it with a flat blade screwdriver. Then it was nap time as I had worked so hard to repair the router.
I forgot the special instructions part. . . . . one must first remove the replacement cap from the plastic that it is shipped in,

The brush caps cracked when I was trying to install them
Charles - January 8, 2020

Router
Difficulty
Hard
Time
15-30 minutes
Tools Used
Screwdriver, dental pick
Parts Used
Removed brush caps to check the brushes. This was extremely difficult lining up the brushes in their holders. I used a dental pick to hold them in place while screwing in the caps. This was way more difficult then you would think. I bent the brushes so they were held in place a little to get the brush cap started. This will take patience. Trying to jam the brushes in and screw on the cap was how I cracked the old caps because the brush was not properly in its holder.
