Great video Colt. You had nothing to lose by taking it apart and seeing what was going on. But in the end you ended up saving yourself about a 100 bucks cad. So it was a win win in my books

Great video. Thank you for taking the time to do that. It was very comprehensive. God bless you.

Glad it could help!

Hi ya bud, only thing I have done differently is I had the same issue on another make, is I put a small amount of electrical tape around the brush wire, then put a small amount of petroleum jelly around the tape so it would slide inside the housing where the wire sits, works like a gooden, good job though, really enjoying your video's, heard about you from Peg at zip ties.

[@highostablegarage]

Yes sir that is a good idea, now that I know how to take the back off the grinder I might just do that, thanks. I didn’t know Pegging legging talked about us haha, man is an Albertan Legend 👌

@Higho Stable Garage You're more than welcome youngster, Peg is brilliant, you Canadians should vote him into Prime Ministers Job, you wouldn't have the crap you dealing with now, that's for sure.

[@juandanielrc7759]

Thank u so much, this help me a lot, i have the same Grinder

[@highostablegarage]

Glad it helped out 👌

Suspecting an electrical problem, it's a mystery to me why one would start by removing the head instead of the back to check first the cord, brushes and switch - in that order.

More for disassembly for people to see

Not very old, maybe 10 hours of use on the grinder

[@steverugerguy9606]

Really?dang.....under the title it says its very old?

[@highostablegarage]

@@steverugerguy9606 just saw that, looks like video got uploaded with the draft for the video description, that’s why it’s not even a sentence haha 😂. I’ll fix it soon

[@steverugerguy9606]

​@@highostablegarageit looks rough to be only 10 hours on it.
