Hat's off to you for the dismantling of that beast just for that mag washer (as i would call it) lol. loving the video content buddy, Keep em coming for sure :)
I have a suggestion for a tool brand to have a quick look at should you ever come accross them or when you run out of good stuff for teardowns: Yato. They look to be sort of upper quality chinese imports similar to Mellif or Parkside. They have a decent range of 18V tools and even a miter saw. They dont look all that impressive though probably Parkside grade tools. Their hand tools are quite good I know a couple guys at work who got themselves Yato tools and they are happy with them.
@@vxnova1 He mentioned the reasons on the video called "Last of the Hilti Tools" The TLDR is: 1. When the service light comes on, the tool needs to be sent to Hilti no matter what 2. Parts costs a fortune in shipping cost
Hey, tried looking at your videos in hopes to find a hilti charger repair, start charging and then stops. Battery is fine, tried 1 from a friend. Thank you.
I still want to know what brand and model of watch that you are wearing, Dean. I think it's a Casio, but I'd like to get one of those. I think I had one in the past or something similar.
@@deandohertygreaser I used to wear a Casio G-Shock MTG-900 Atomic Solar. The battery has lasted over 15 years and I don't have to change back and forth to Daylight Savings Time or wind it. It cost $99 at Walmart. There might be a newer version by now. The plastic part where the metal band connects finally deteriorated. I just keep the watch part in my watch pocket of my jeans. I think I will buy 1 like yours soon. I did have the red led type when they first came out. I love your videos, brother, and I will recommend them to others. I bought a used Black & Decker drill model DR202 and the liquid is gone from the bubble level. Can I get a replacement ?
@@darylhudson777I really seriously doubt you will find something like the level bubble available for a drill like that especially the economy model that it is. It's also unnecessary and unneeded to use the drill at all. If you really need that assistance to drill a level hole there is an attachment that goes into the chuck I believe that casts 2 round circles in the wall you're drilling into to keep drill level & square.
@@darylhudson777 We understand you want to show off here with bunch of questions and wait for Dean reply. Specially when you post 3 different posts on some videos, but you do not need to be rude toward others who also want to help.
Ran Hilti in an earlier life. Great gear and running them through 'fleet hire' as a business can make sense. Wouldn't touch them as a one man band or DIY'er though.
7:57 What is that green plastic you hold over the magnetic pickup ring? Is that like an old screen off of somthing? Its really cool to see the magnet through the screen, kinda reminds me of an old toy we had here in USA an Etch-a-Sketch in my younger years. Nice to see past 5.25 on this video, must've been a bad upload to the interwebs!👍🏻👌🏻🛠️🔧🔩🦺 ✊🏻🇺🇸🦅
That segmented magnetic feedback "washer" must eventually get destroyed by the impact of the hammer action of the tool, This is surely a design issue of not making this part of more resilient material?.
They are simply not worth the Hassel anymore. Hilti is more of a hire shop now. Delivery of any part even a single o ring cost 30 euro. Plus they have a red light of death which prevents most repairs
Its about Hilti scummy repair practices. If that red light on the tool will light up (not blink) the machine locks up and requires maintenance. Even, if repair service does it, they cannot reset the module resposible for unlocking the tool. Only Hilti service themselves can do this and they apparently do not allow local repair services for the tool to reset the powertool module. So, if you get red light of "death" you need to send it to Hilti.
Hilti is protecting their market by not wanting to sell their spare parts to other service/repair points, workshops, hardwareshops. So the only option is basically to bring your faulty Hilti to a Hilti dealer. Bit how like Apple works.
Thank you, Dean, much better seeing the Hilti being fixed. 🥳
more great content even after technical fault fast recovery
Thanks again Dean!

If Ive learnt one thing from your Brilliant channel Dean and buying power tools its Red = Danger, Do not buy ! ;D

Yato.

Wow, busted because of a price of plastic . that's a bunch of work replacing that. But money well spent. Nice job Dean.
Great video
I like the Hilti repair videos, basically because other then replacing a lead I don't get to work on them, lol!
I’m sure your glad to see the back of Hilti
you are right
Hey Dean, Great video. I would love to see more Hilti's though. 😄
Sadly I'm no longer taking them in for repair.
@@deandohertygreaserare they just not repairable or too expensive?

ita the @casio A163W, cheap and cheerful, but it lasts for decades

Hey Dean, the black plastic part that you removed. Did you replace it or just leave it out?
It was part of the new white ring, it's the magnet around it.
It was smashed inside before being changed
Ran Hilti in an earlier life. Great gear and running them through 'fleet hire' as a business can make sense. Wouldn't touch them as a one man band or DIY'er though.
So do you think picking up one of their demo hammer drills is not worth it if your just a 1 man show ripping out tile on the odd occasion?

Magnetic viewing film.
Apparently you can get a gizmo that will reset the Hilti service light.
yes, but its hit or miss if they work. You could spend 100s and the light could come back on.
👍👍

Why you stop repairing Hilti’s?

The Curse of the Hilti with previous video 💀
Why no working on hilti? They are so expensive to buy I'd think they would be one you'd rather repair than just replace
That is exactly it - too expensive and on top awkward to repair. Better get a Bosch GSH. Better price and no „return me home“ service light.
Its about Hilti scummy repair practices. If that red light on the tool will light up (not blink) the machine locks up and requires maintenance. Even, if repair service does it, they cannot reset the module resposible for unlocking the tool. Only Hilti service themselves can do this and they apparently do not allow local repair services for the tool to reset the powertool module.
So, if you get red light of "death" you need to send it to Hilti.
I see... I'm in USA so rarely even see hilti. So didn't know that
I have a 9 inch Hilti grinder ..bad switch 11o volts cant source the switch anywhere had to Maguiver a switch from a Bosch
