What to do if my RIDGID Power Tool motor does not start?
- JJohn WilsonJul 26, 2025
If the RIDGID Power Tool motor doesn't start, first ensure the power drive is plugged into a power source. Check the fuse and replace it if it's blown. Inspect the brushes; if they are worn, replace them. Overload due to dull dies can also prevent starting, so replace the dies if necessary. Ensure you're using adequate RIDGID thread cutting oil. Also, check that the brushes are making good contact with the brush holder by tightening the screws and ensuring the brush is firmly pressed onto the commutator.
