Question and answer
Number of questions: 1Trouble with model gks 12v-26 saw. With a full battery inserted and trying to press the trigger, there is no response to the blade/motor. The battery still shows full 3 bars and the LED light still comes on. Sometimes when I nudge the tool, a red triangle symbol appears next to the battery indicator. Sometimes the blade will spin but is very unreliable. Is this something to do with the trigger unit or the motor clutch? I dont think it's the battery problem as all the lights still works.

The problem you are having with the Bosch GKS 12V-26 Professional saw could be due to a defective trigger unit or a motor clutch issue. It is unlikely to be a battery problem as the battery indicator displays full bars and the LED light still functions. The intermittent blade spinning indicates a possible problem with the trigger unit or motor clutch. We suggest having a professional technician examine and fix the saw to identify the precise issue.
