How to open up (old) Bosch drill? Any tips?

Had same issue with my previous Bosch combi

Opened it up and blasted the crap out of the switch with contact cleaner

Hey ho got it going again for about 18 months

Replacement is brushless and metal chuck only about 60 on amazon

My bosch drills look older than that model, but look very similar. They are still going strong. Made up a wooden gate for the path between the shed and hedges with the scrap slats lying around the garden using the old bosch drill. My drills are brushed, but never needed replacement yet, and they are about 10 years old or even more.

I've a Bosch 18v impact so that comes out for woodwork

Never had any brush trouble but don't get massive use. Battery runs longer with brushless im not sure how much
