How to repair a Dewalt DCH778 Cordless drill with a stripped out gear.
This can be a common problem for any drill with a plastic gearcase. But not all brands sell the internal gearbox parts separately.
Makita is one that does not, along with milwaukee and bosch. Most other brands do supply these parts on thier own.
This is why you pay a little extra for a drill, as the more expensive, more power drills use metal a metal gear case or a metal insert.

Congrats on getting the channel back, that must have been a real unexpected stress! I bet you learned about two-factor real fast.

[@marconiandcheese7258]

@@TheBertjeT this happened to Linus Tech Tips and I think he said this hack bypasses the two factor protection.

[@deandohertygreaser]

i had 2 factor authentication and backup email address. The hackers got in a changed them to thier own 2 factor and installed passkeys also

[@daithifarrell]

[@analogsmog]

that was weird the other day when this channel posted that elon musk thing. then Dean posted on the community page saying he got hacked. now we are back to business with some great repair videos! because of this channel, it gave me the confidence to open up my makita grinder. dusted and newly greased! thanks, Dean, for these uploads.

[@marconiandcheese7258]

Thanks, Dean.

[@davidheyneke6389]

Welcome back my friend!!😂

[@Ryan.90]

Was talking to a mate about your channel other day, really great to see you fixing this stuff, these days a lot of the time it just gets chucked, either actually in the bin or a corner of the garage, 'go and buy a new one'. I've a Dewalt 796 getting ready for a new chuck and watching your video reckon i'll be able to get it done. 👍

[@michaelfairchild]

There are videos about Dean replacing chuck on a 796. Two of them actually.

[@Ryan.90]

@@michaelfairchild Yeah that's what got me onto the channel. Lol

[@user-disgust]

Hey, great to see you back Dean. Could you update the title of the video to be DCD rather than DCH. Thanks.

[@Josh.Straughn]

YES!!!!!

[@repairs524]

Hello Dean I just bought the membership is it only 3 videos you have up so far or is there video somewhere else

[@deandohertygreaser]

Only a few so far, working on another bosch one at the moment

[@Damicske]

@@deandohertygreaser they deleted everything :( when I noticed that your channels was hijacked I could still see the old uploads.

[@liamconway9281]

Wonder why they don't make the gearbox casing out of metal instead of plastic, surely it'd last longer?

[@krz8888888]

Hey Dean where's my doubled up crypto !? Just joking glad you're back

[@Thefortnitekid15]

Let’s goo was missing the content 😅

[@HogeN1337]

ohhhhhh for once support did something right&fast :))

[@michaelfairchild]

I know its to save cost, but metal rubbing on plastic aint no way to go. Its like a dude who never been in a fight going against Connor McGregor in a ring.

[@Marcus1954s]

This is what happened to my DCD778, which I repaired but was appalled that a critical part was plastic. Couldn't trust it so never bought another combi drill from Screwfix/intended for the DIY market. Now we can benefit from Dean's experience and free advice.

[@michaelfairchild]

@@Marcus1954s Its not only powertools, but most items now are designed properly, but in manufacturing phase are replaced by cheap materials to cut cost. With expensive powertools you think its a high quality, but in case of Mafell, well it isnt.
