Genuine Makita replacement part
Set of 2 Carbon Brushes with wire lead attached. • Worn brushes frequently are the cause behind a motor running poorly. • Replacing brushes can fix a motor that’s operating intermittently. • New brushes can restore a motor’s electric braking. Carbon brushes are one of the most commonly replaced power tool parts. This is because carbon brushes are wear items, meaning that through friction and use they will gradually wear away until they need replacing. Worn brushes are a common causes of intermittent motor function, reduced electric braking and reduced motor power. A worn-out brush will often be worn down near to the wire lead and can be cracked, pitted, or burned. When replacing carbon brushes, be sure to inspect your armature for burns, cracks, or other damage which can indicate larger motor problems.

Thought it might have been the switch but the suggested solution for the problem I was having was replace brushes (75% vs 12%) and that's exactly what it was.
Remove two screws from back of drill housing.
Lift retainer spring off of brush with nail or screw.
Pull worn brush out by wire with needle nose pliers and remove clamp at other end of wire.
Do the same in reverse order to install new brushes

Removed the 2 phillips end cap screws to access the brushes. They simply pull out to the holder after I took a pick and held the brush spring off to the side. When replacing the holder you have to separate the two halves of the handle. Not a big job. Just make sure you line up the steel field that the armature turns in. It has a notch in it that has to line up with the one in the handle housing. If you don't do this you can't get the housings completely together and wonder why. This happened to me. Also make sure the detent springs for the High/Low don't fall out when putting the two halves together. Otherwise it was a simple repair. I have done 2 drills so far in our business and plan to get more parts to do more. Parts are identical to the original and are in Makita labeled packaging. Also great pricing.
