mine has always operated flawlessly, then I was putting a few screws in the bedroom shelf and it worked fine. picked it up to change rotation and it is froze up. the trigger operates the lite and the batteries are fresh. but it will not turn, tried to turn with a wrench but its locked ? motor? gear drive or trigger? It doesn’t even seem as if its trying to turn when you pull the trigger?

The most difficult step in this process is disconnecting the black wire from the defective switch. The wire enters the switch block however there is no sign of a screw or fastening one can disconnect to remove that wire! That step is ‘glossed over’. Any enlightenment from anyone would be welcome.
