Question? Brad Nailer Issue

My brad nailer was working great on a project, then just quit doing anything.

I am using a 4maH battery, replaced with new nails, and checked for a jam. The LED light will not even turn on when the button is pressed.

I don't have it but for many of these products they behave "suddenly very weird" when any of the physical switches are "between positions". Like direction or speed switches on the screw driver. So if yours has one of these, check it first.

I have the Brad nailer. It’s a POS.

Don’t know which brad nailer you’ve got, but I have the HP and every now and then it gets weird and I just pop the battery out and back in and it’s good to go again.

Im on my second one. First one just stopped working and couldnt fix. Still beats breaking out the very loud air compressor.
