My brother Glenn had problems with his grass trimmer not always working when the switch was depressed so he decided to see if the problem could be easily fixed. Luckily there were no wires loose and it was a simple mechanical fix for the problem. This video shows how he fixed the problem. Since his channel does not do this type of videos we collaborated together and are placing it on my channel. Hopefully this can help and if so please like and subscribe.

Some info on troubleshooting corded electrical grass and lawn trimmers and edgers.
There are a lot of things that might cause your electric trimmer to not start but with a bit of troubleshooting, you can often isolate and resolve the problem.
The Simplest Fixes
Before you investigate bigger problems causing your corded electric trimmer/edger to lose power, make sure the switch is turned to the “on” position.
Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
Check the breaker panel or fuse box powering the outlet. If a breaker has tripped, or a fuse has blown, reset the breaker or replace the fuse.
Always use caution when dealing with electricity and do not proceed if you are unfamiliar or uncomfortable working with electricity.
Debris Clogging Line
If you have a battery powered or electric Weed Eater trimmer that won't start, turn the power switch to the "off" position and check the bottom of the trimmer. If grass or debris has clogged around the trimmer's cutting line, the trimmer may not start. Clear all material from the underside of the trimmer to resolve the problem.
If this doesn't work then taking the trimmer apart to check wire connections and mechanical connections can be done.
Safety should always be your top priority when working with any type of machinery, even something as small as an electric hedge trimmer. Use common sense. Turn off the trimmer and fully unplug it from its power source. Doing this will eliminate the chance of accidentally turning it on while you work. Resist the urge to simply turn the unit off; it's too easy to accidentally hit the on/off switch and injure yourself.
