Hi, my drill bushes burnt out and I've changed them but now when I fully tighten the case the drill doesn't work at all, but when the case is loose the drill works fine.

Any ideas

Drill is Hitachi DV18DSDL


Thanks Lewis
 
The bit the brush slide in may be fouled and need cleaning.
Also when the brushes get hot, the plastic surround can melt, and will need trimming with a scalpel or craft knife.
