Ridgid R860054 Trigger Replacement

crwdns2915892:0crwdne2915892:0

Use this guide to replace a damaged or faulty trigger in your Ridgid 860054 Drill.

The drill trigger causes the drill to rotate when pressed. If the trigger is blocked or damaged, it won’t press or it is otherwise faulty, you will be unable to power on and control the drill.

Be sure to cross out all other possibilities on the troubleshooting guide before doing this replacement. It is possible that the drill trigger is still functional. There could be other issues preventing the drill from working instead of the trigger.

Make sure to remove the battery from the drill before beginning the repair.
