If your Makita DT01 light isn’t producing light or produces light that often flickers, use this guide to replace the LED.
The LED light produces light at the push of a button on the handle. A faulty LED will cause flickering light, much dimmer light than usual, or no light at all.
Before using this guide, inspect the light for any debris that could be preventing a properly working light from being usable. Typically, debris buildup can be wiped away with a Clorox wipe and paper towel, or use a soft cloth damp with warm water to wipe away the debris. Be sure to test the light again after cleaning to check if the debris or mechanical issue is causing the lack of light.
Step 3 requires you to reconnect the wires to the new LED. Make sure to use tweezers or similar tools to bend the wire into place once connected to the LED, otherwise, you could break or cause damage to the LED.
