This is a Genuine Manufacturer Sourced replacement part used on certain Makita Drills. This is a Plastic Switch with Wire Leads. Switch handles on/off function of the tool. They also have a role in electric breaking, they can momentarily reverse electrical polarity. Because switches use mechanical internals, they will degrade and wear out over time, eventually needing replacement.

Factory part and great instruction video.
Once you remove the attachment screws and cut the tape label at the bottom remove the top right side. Take pictures with your phone on how the wire is routed for the switch. The spade wire connectors are on real tight so use pliers to carefully pull straight off. When removing the wires it would be helpful to have another hand holding the armature down as not to pull it out of the left side like I did. Heed this advice as it was then a challenge to get it back together as parts went flying.
Now it’s a good time to check wear on the brushes and use air to blow out the dust and dirt.
First time is the hardest but having the pictures helped get it back together and I’m sure it will live for another ten years.

Makita drill trigger switch
Found trigger to be exact original part, great quality and easy to replace. The price was a little more than I wanted to pay but I didn't want to buy a new drill due to a failed trigger switch. The shipping was fast. I will use EReplacementParts in the future.

Part was right, shipping department are liars
Match the part number to what you need, not rocket science. But the lying email saying my part was shipped an hour and half after ordering, That's terrible. Ordered Thursday AM and shipped late Monday. Asked about it, and no response. Terrible and lying customer service.

Removed 8 screws to remove drill case to gain access to switch.
Removed one wire at a time from the old switch and hooked up the same wire on the new switch, thus eliminating any chance of connecting them in the wrong spot in the new switch.
Replaced the drill case and screws.
Tested and it worked like new.
Really grateful that this switch was available for this Makita Cordless drill. I use this almost everyday. A $30 part restored a $150 drill I would be lost without.
