Why does my Kobalt 1438127 Trimmer motor fail to start?
- A
  Ashley ThorntonAug 11, 2025
  If the Kobalt Trimmer motor doesn't start when you press the switch trigger, there could be a few reasons. First, check that the battery is securely in place, ensuring the latches on the battery compartment snap into place. Another possibility is that the battery isn't charged, so charge it following the instructions that came with your model. If these steps don't work, there might be a wiring or electrical contact issue, so call 1-888-3KOBALT (1-888-356-2258) for technical service.

  If the Kobalt Trimmer head won't advance the line, it could be due to several reasons. First, stop the trimmer, remove the battery, and check if the motor shaft or trimmer head is bound with grass, and remove any grass. Also, the spool may not have enough line, so remove the battery and replace the trimmer line. In addition, a dirty trimmer head could be the culprit, so remove the battery and clean the spool. Lastly, the line might be tangled on the spool; in this case, remove the battery, take the line off the spool, and rewind it.

  If the line on your Kobalt Trimmer isn't cutting well, it could be that the cutting blade on the guard has become dull. You can sharpen the cutting blade with a file or replace it with a new blade.
