Hello all! Got a funny one here.
So I ordered an Ifixit electric screwdriver, and after some deductive reasoning, I have come to believe that there is a short in it. The iFixit team was obviously kind enough to send me a replacement driver after receiving this faulty one, but I’m curious to see if I am able to fix or repair this one as well.
Pretty much, anytime I place fresh batteries into it, it will drain them in a short period of time, the driver will either work, not work, produce only light if I click on both buttons, work counter clockwise but not work clockwise, etc. Just curious if anyone has had any experience maybe disassembling this driver and if this is worth the time and energy seeing if it is repairable, or just give it in to recycle. Thanks for any feedback!
