I've just noticed today that my T15 spins a final 1/4 to 1/2 turn when i let the trigger go after one last drive of a screw. I noticed it earlier but
thought that i had just been hitting the trigger accidently. I tried all the same settings on my other T 15 with multiple batteries to see if it was a Festool feature. Nope!

Im thinking it may be the trigger thats a little defective. Its not so much of an issue while drilling holes but putting in screws may become problematic.

Any ideas???
 
Hello Captain,
I just read your post and was thinking, that when a battery is soon to be flat, but can still work reasonably, it seems as if the electronic clutch goes out of function, and the motor spins a little longer, thereby rotating the tool longer than needed/wanted. As soon as a freshly charged battery is inserted, it works completely normal as expected.
At least that is what my T15 does.
I couldn't see from your post if you also tried the other machines battery on that specific T15?
I don't know if that is your problem, anyway it's just my twopence.

Cheers, and merry Christmas,
Jacques.
 
Hi there,
I also had the same problem with my drill and Festool replaced the switch and the electronic control. I have seen other post on this same problem and new parts fix it every time!
