I bought this Blue Bosch Go screwdriver as not working. It seems to be new but does not work or accept a charge.

Good job Dom, I’ve watched your entire video list, very good work, but the latter ones are better cause you started speaking and explaining what was happening, keep up the awesome work mate. 🤙🏼🇦🇺 Joe from Australia 🤙🏼🇦🇺

Thanks Joe. I can't believe you watched all my videos. Perhaps you should get an award for that.😁

I have the dremel version of this screwdriver very handy .You may want to invest in an inline USB voltage /current meter then you can tell if it is charging . The Fnirsi is very good

Thanks for comment. I just bought one from Aliexpress.

When you had the thing in pieces, you can plug the charger in and measure the voltage on the battery. If the charger circuit is working properly, you should see the voltage on the battery creeping up slowly ;-)

That's a good idea. That would tell me if the charge circuit is working. Thank you.

@@DaftOldMan for me it was interesting to see the original battery having such low voltage. In case the charger/bms circuit works correctly, it should not discharge the battery lower than 2.7-2.5v. This should be the minimum alowed for a li-ion type of battery. In case you go lower, you can damage permanently the battery or significantly reduce it's lifetime. Would be nice to have a revisit of this machine a couple of weeks later. Thank you for the content and for the great videos you create for us. I enjoy each second of them. Wishing you all the best!!

I made this video 5 months ago and have used the screwdriver almost every day since. It has worked fine and seems to recharge ok. Perhaps I was just lucky with this one.

I did a repair on this model not so long ago, it was swine to put back together, no space wasted, so compact. The problem on mine (actually my brothers) was the chuck, it wouldn't turn, turned out that a ballbearing had slipped out of place and was preventing the chuck from turning. Needless to say I'd completely stripped it down to the bare bones before I found the problem. Works fine now.

I feel your pain. These are not easy to work on. Glad you could fix it.

I have a dyson vacuum doing the exact same thing. I think it is the electronics boards (BMS) that are not up to the job.
