🔧 MAKITA 18V CIRCULAR SAW — NO POWER! ⚡
This one came in with absolutely no life in it. No power, no spinning, nothing. 😴
We checked the usual suspects:
🔍 Brushes — fine
🔍 Switch — fine
🔍 Motor — fine
Turns out it was the speed controller that had failed — a known/common fault on these saws.
A new controller fitted, everything tested and this Makita is BACK TO CUTTING! 🔥🪚
Another one diagnosed, repaired and saved from the scrap pile. ♻️
