black and decker cd115 Angle grinder problem
I got my hands on the above grinder.
Atm, it doesn't work. I have checked the brushes and both seem to have loads of meet left.
How can i test what is wrong with it?
I suspect it is the switch. can i test this somehow before i go spending money for parts?

worth taking apart and checking connections. Basically go around checking continuity with you ohm-meter.
I had a Bosch one that has some solder joints that when they get really hot go open circuit. Not sure whether it is a design feature or not. It is
now my "spare", got a new Makita one that is just awesome (if you get money/vouchers for Christmas).

If you take it apart you can bypass switch, be careful, and then you will know if it is the switch or not.
