Why DeWalt Nail Gun motor does not run with trigger depressed?

  Justin Berry DDSJul 27, 2025
  If your DeWalt Nail Gun's motor doesn't run when you depress the trigger, there are several potential causes. First, check if the trigger lock is engaged and unlock it. The tool might be stalled, preventing the motor from rotating; rotate the stall release lever. If the driver blade doesn't return, remove the battery and manually push it back. If the tool is in sequential actuation mode, depress the contact trip before firing or switch to bump mode. You can also try resetting the tool's internal electronics by removing the battery, waiting three seconds, and reinserting it. Note that the motor stopping after 5 seconds is normal operation; release and redepress the trigger.

  If your DeWalt Nail Gun motor doesn't run when you depress the contact trip, start by checking if the trigger lock is engaged and unlock it. Another possibility is that the dryfire lockout is engaged, preventing the contact trip from traveling fully; load more nails into the magazine. Also, the tool might be stalled, which locks the motor; rotate the stall release lever to release it. If the driver blade doesn't return, remove the battery and manually push the driver blade back to its home position. Keep in mind that the motor stopping after 5 seconds is normal operation; release and redepress the contact trip.

  If your DeWalt Nail Gun operates but doesn't fully drive fasteners, try these solutions. First, adjust the depth setting to a deeper level. Ensure the tool is firmly pressed against the workpiece. If stalling continues, consider using a more appropriate material and fastener length for the application.

  If the drive blade of your DeWalt Nail Gun continues to get stuck in the down position, it could be due to a jammed nail. Use the stall release lever to clear any jammed nails, and manually return the driver blade if necessary. Another potential cause is debris in the nosepiece; clean the nose area, watching for small pieces of broken nails stuck in the track.
