Gutted. I wanted to buy a nice new drill, but I can't now- on the plus side, you've saved me a lot of money, so thank you!

You just saved me the time and money of going to buy a new one in 5 mins. You win the internet today. Thank you Sir.

Thank you so much for your advice.It was helpful.I had both, the B&D 12v and I didn't notice that the clutch was stuck.So I follow your instructions and my home works got finished.Of cause I will return this one at the store and exchange with a brand new one.Thank you again.

Thank you so much! First suggestion did the trick. Only had to use one wrench for the chuck, twisted the other part, by hand. Black+Decker Model: LDX120

The two big wrenches going in opposite directions is just what I needed! It’s opening and closing! I’m ready to go! Thanks a million!❤

THANK YOU SO MUCH MIKE!!!! The pliers worked and my drill works once again!

It piggin worked; it actually worked. I was going out to purchase another chuck, then though of the Internet. Your channel the first and fixed.

I was about to quit on my faithful B&D that was stuck just like this. Thank you for this video, it worked without effort! 🎉

You saved me. I used both my hands and gave it all i got since i didn’t have large pliers. Thank you so much.

Thank you for sharing it! Your advice saved my drill

FYI...That takes a Torx wrench for the chuck bolt, not a hex, and it's called a Left hand thread. You're using Channelock pliers. When removing the chuck and gripping I would recommend not gripping on the grooved keys you could break them or "booger" them up . the part that fits into the black rubber grip has two flat edges I would grip on that. Also, a vice would help immensely in performing this action. . You should also mention you have the clutch set to 1, so people don't put it on drill or a high setting . Good luck out there.

Life saver. I've got a Craftsman 19.2 that locked when it went to full open however even my death grip hands couldn't get over the thread end back onto the mechanism or whatever they got setup inside. Couldn't find a thin enough wrench to slide in between the adjustable torque piece and the 2nd of 2 adjustable front pieces. Now I can mount these 2 ceiling mount heaters in the garage which will get me through the winter and allow me to continue my projects.

Thanks! I didn’t have a large wrench so I used a small strap wrench on the bottom and used my hand on the top. Came loose pretty easily.

Thanks so much. Have a 20v Black & Decker drill w/jammed drill in the open position, thought I may have to purchase another. Your 1st step did the trick.

This worked for my 14.4v cordless drill. Thank you.

Thank you! Saved me cash on a new one!

THANK YOU for this simple and effective hack. Was getting super frustrated and turned to the internet. Yours was the first video I found!

Worked great on my 20v B&D. The hex screw was 9/64 US then when I got the chuck off, a pliers top and bottom a little twist and 'pop' the jaws started working again I did not have to disassemble the chuck. 😊 thanks for the help,

great video, 10 seconds of watching this just saved me an hour of frustration.

Well, thank you so much! You would not believe how much you just helped me out of a jam. Much appreciated! It is a pity I only have one thumbs up to give..

Thank you it worked for me with the hypertough using the losener as well.

Thanks for the help. Saved me some money.

How do I add 10 likes?!!! OMG, I am so glad I found this walk-though after throwing away one such 20V device (by e-waste recycling), and my new one got stuck after a single month of moderate use! I was upset at Black and Decker for making these silly products, but not anymore - just needs a trick to keep it going. Thank you!!!

Thanks a lot, very useful for me and helped me to save lots of money.

Thank you!! Fixed in 1min with your tips!

Upgraded from an older 18v kit. kzfaq.infoUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.

Thank you so much. The first option worked perfectly!!!

Thank you for the informative video. My drill kept jamming all the time & took me forever to unjam it by hand.

This worked very well for me. Thanks!

Awesome man. I gonna try this tomorrow with a good ol Ridgid corded drill a friend gave me some years ago

Thanks for the video. My drill is now fixed.

Exactly my problem. OK know that I'm equipped with the power of knowledge, let go find that SOB BD drill and see what can I do... Thanks & you're the man.

I was about to throw it bro. I thought it was unusable. Nice tutorial! 👏👏👏

Thank you Sir!

Helpful video. 🇨🇦😎👍🏼

Tq for the tips.

Thanks fixed my auction buy

Thank You!

THANK YOU!

I have the 14v drill. The teeth are find, my issue is that it keeps getting loose when trying to drill into a wall or when using the screw option. Is there a quick fix for this? Thanks for sharing this video.

Thank you 🙏

Thank you so much...

Thank you so muchhh!!

Thank you

Any ideas if a drill bit is stuck in it? 14V version.

Thanks worked great. I thought I'd have to throw the drill out.

Thanks 👍 buddy got it thanks again 🤓

Yea.. worked for me too.. using the vise that came with my house. someone suggested that below.. since i only have one wrench.

Thank you so much.

I have a 20v which appears to be the same as the 14v. Try as I might, I cannot break loose the screw that's holding the chuck assembly on the drill. I will look for a bigger wrench or screwdriver that I can add more torque.

Thanks for sharing this useful tutorial. I save few euros for not buying/ sending my tool to a repair shop.

Cool tutorial repair mike gud day

I like the tool that is a hex and that star type wrench.

your the "best of the best of the best" - MIB

Thank you!

Thank you SO MUCH!!! Yesterday my B&D 18V drill was working & today as I was getting ready to fix the lock for my front door, the chuck was totally jammed. The first trick did the job. Would using WD40 oil inside the chuck maybe once a month be a good idea to prevent jamming in the future?? Thanks again.

2nd part worked,,, burnt my glove too! ty

I don't know what's wrong with mine but when I pull the trigger it just turns on its light but doesn't do anything else. Also the chuck is siezed. If I were to free the chuck would it actually restore the drill's functionality? I don't know but I'll try.

Thank u!!!

You just saved me a lot of money, thank you!!

My 14.4v drill screw in the head, the screw head is too wide to get past the drill bit clamps. I cannot get the screw out and it doesn't rotate off either.

Nice video, I just wanted to say that black+decker tools are some of the worst I've used in my (short) life. The handles are extremely uncofortable, the mashines seem to be very unprecize (stich saw) and my drill was blocked when i bought it... Bosh for the win 100%

Is that a Torx wrench you are using?

Nice

What if you don't feel anything get looser?

I have a drill bit in in the 14v so how do I get it out to get to the screw?

Does not work for 18v black & decker chuck. After removing with torx bit, chuck won't separate from drill. If anyone has had luck please let me know.

funny how when applying the pliers,...the chuck has already been freed up.... you can now see the "jaws" protruding.

Son of a gun, i get the hex screw out but my drill is a 20vmax and just cranks

Nevermind, you have your clockwise and counterclockwise backwards friend

You skipped the bit I really wanted to know about, which is the direction of rotation for the hex screw! 😭

Not hex, but torx

Torx

Had one for under a year B&D, has to be the worst drill I've ever had ..😢
