Repair and restore 6 Bosch Ixo screwdrivers....Ixo 5

I bought 6 not working Bosch Ixo screwdrivers and three chargers.
Over the following videos I hope to fix them all.

The outer pinsnon the direction switch are the mounthing of the outher case of the switch. Thats why there is contineuity on them. The mittle 3pins are the pins on the switch. Center in common en legt and rigt ar the switch sides

I guess this is the 4th generation of the IXO.
Version 3 also has the insulator on the battery.
But in this version the direction switch is definitely different than the older IXOs.

I have no idea which is which. I have eight of them and 4 chargers and still do not have the correct chargers for some of them. Bosch loved changing things.

Have a look at the IXO range of accessories and you'll understand what the rubber 'thing' is for …

Thanks for commenting. I will have a look.

@@DaftOldMan it’s for a corner accessory which clicks on and you can screw sideways 😁

There is also a peppermill attachment and all kinds of stuff

Do i take it that the first plastic cogs are turning faster and with less torque through them than the metal cogs in the later stage of the gear reduction train.
Will we soon be seeing the history of Bosch Ixo screwdrivers, to see how they have changed over time would be quite interesting.

I wonder if plastic gears are for quiet running. A history of bosch ixo's....I think my videos are boring enough already.😁
