i have been fixing things like this since i was a teenager, nice to see somebody else that takes the time to repair things rather than chuck away and get a new one - thank you
Thank-you soooooo much.Exact same problem on my GOP300SCE (300watt version) Was going to order new brushes from Amazon but it turns out the netural cable had snapped just like yours. Very dissapointing for a 'Blue' grad professional tool that is uased very little in it 2 years ! Anyhow you saved me a great deal of time with your simple diagnosis. Top Man !
Hah mine broke mid job, had a quick look at this and 5 minutes later I was up and running. Cable broke in same place and I could feel it through the outer sheath. Brilliant.
Hi I had the same problem and as well it was blue neutral wire,, just leave the joint on the cable, because it is quite tight, I forgot to remember how it was wired, thanks for your video
Always worth trying to fix before buying new whatever it is. That was worth making a video of, hopefully, it will inspire people to have a go themselves, as long as they are competent obviously 🤞
Hello Dr Pipe, I presume your a plumber, me too! Thanks for this, I've got the same multi tool with the same problem, tried to 'quickly' fix while on a job the other day but was disappointed when the 2 screws at the back didn't release it, job to do at home lol. So now I know it's 2 more screws means I don't risk damaging it with my big ugly plumber hands hahaha. Thanks again!
Mr Blues thanks for watching .. wasn’t going to post this but your comment makes me smile so happy days .. such a pain when it goes on and off ! I’m sure it won’t be the last one I fix or you !
@@drpipe This is probably one of my most used power tools, it nearly drove me crazy when it started going on & off! Your right, there's no end of maintenance for all the stuff we own, thank god we can! Lol
Mr Blues oh I’m not sure you do have to undo the other screws ! but at the same time you can give it a blow out all the dust in there ! Enjoy the channel all plumbing and heating related stuff. All the best.
If I saw that right....yours stayed at low then actually ramped up to high speed for a second...is that right? Mine seems like it has no speed control but I am wondering if that cord is causing my problem as well. Mine jumps up to a high speed with with no speed control.
My pmf220ce seems to lose force/torque even when the pressure load on it is not significant. It will stop altogether during jobs until the force is relaxed. It just happens all the time. Any ideas
That problem happens a lot with mains powered tools. Rather annoyingly, actually putting the tools back into the boxes often necessitates tightly bending the flex in order to get the box lid down. Inevitably, this leads to stressing the core and the resulting metal fatigue. I've resurrected countless tools in the manner shown. Just wish that the manufacturers would take this into consideration, but then ... they wouldn't be able to flog you a new one. God knows how many people just throw them away or pay through the nose to have them repaired. Even with battery tools the vibration often breaks the contacts inside the machine. Once you identify where the fault lies, a dab of solder usually makes them live on a little longer.
Hello good video! Hey I don't know if anyone has encounter the same problem as me, if I turn it on it swings side to side with no problem but when I start cutting into any material the blade won't move & just stays still without cutting any ideas on what might be wrong with it ?
Cheers for this, as dames happened to mine, and I didn’t fully know how to take it apart and on site early, but got home, searched for a video, yours came up and now my multi tool is fixed 👌🏻👌🏻🤌🏻

Stupid question what do you use the tool for?
goffy glos not a stupid question.. it’s for cutting wood plastic and softy metals.. but accurately without much dust. Thanks for watching.
Nice one pal 🎩

Maybe disengaged within drive train or worn out
i would think the brushes could be gone causing it to not make contact under load
A bit of spit would have lubricated that cable - pulling it with pliers would have fatigued the cable again.... not ideal.
Looks like the damage occured when it is packed away and the cable is stressed to get it back in the box. Poor design.
TO JAKIŚ ŻART?
