Remove the screws from the clamshell, and remove one half trying to keep all of the parts in one half. Take a pictures just in case. Disconnect the brush and holder assembly and remove. Carefully remove the armature. Install the new armature. Pull the brush springs out put them on top of the holder and pull back the brushes so you can get the brush holder around the armature. Push the brushes back in and release the brush springs. Make sure all of the parts are in the correct place. Then put the clamshell back together.

Removed the 8 screws from the drill casing. Unplugged the LED light assembly, removed the old armature assembly and replaced with new one. Put components back in casing, plugged light back in. Put the casing back on and secured with the 8 screws.
ItGÇÖs a very tight fit with all the components so make sure to take a second and verif y everything is properly in place before trying to screw the other half of casing back on.

Drill had a burning smell coming from it. Turns out the armature had a few wires broken which caused it to short out causing the burning smell.

I ordered a brush set first and that did not resolve all the problem. So, I ordered the armature.
Remove the 8 torque head screws to separate the clamshell housing. Lift the brush assembly and the armature all in one piece. Take a picture so you remembers how it was together. Remove the two wires from the brush assembly. Use a blac k permanent marker to mark the orientation of the magnet. Remove the two wires towards the front of the armature that work the led lights. Mark your wires for correct orientation. Remove the magnet from the armature. Clean the inside of the magnet with a brass wire brush and then wipe it clean using acetone, xylene or paint thinner. Place the magnet over the armature in the same orientation. Place the brush assembly over the back of the armature by compressing the springs on the brush assembly. Now slide the whole assembly into place by using the tabs in the casting to align with the clamshell. The connection for the lights need to be pushed back together. You\'ll feel it click. Now that wire must be below the direction switch that fits into the single pin that protrudes down.

When putting the other half of clamshell it may require a bit of force to align it properly. The torque screws will pull it tightly together. The lower part of the clamshell holds the battery connection. Leave that half of the clamshell down with the inside of it facing up. Once together, place your charged battery into the driver and test it. It\'s possible you may have to loosen some screws to wiggle it into alignment better. Should now be working fine now. The first time I repaired one of these it took me 5 or 6 times taking it apart and back together before I had it working properly.
