Default DeWalt Drill Trigger Fwd/Rev Switch failing

In article , says...

My Dewalt Drill trigger is failing, sometimes I have to hold it on for
30 seconds or more while I disconnect and reconnect the battery, move


We had a couple Dewalts at work with the same issue; after
a bit of searching online, the fix was dirt buildup had
dislodged a retaining clip on the fwd/rev selector.

Can't remember the site (sorry), but it should be
searchable. Disassemble the f/r assembly, clean and
reassemble.
