Wahl Lithium Ion Trimmer: How do I disassemble my Wahl Stainless Steel Lithium Ion + Groomer?

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 06:17:28 -0700

I researched and bought a Wahl Stainless Steel Lithium Ion + Groomer to help me stay within regulations as I was deploying to the Middle East.

During my research I found a number of complaints about the on/off switch failing and the ability of the groomer to accept a charge.

Initially the unit I bought worked well and had no problem with either the switch or charging. However, after owning it for about a year with light use, both of these problems emerged and now I can only turn it off by inserting the plug in the recharging jack.

In order to repair/troubleshoot the problems I need to know how to disassemble the razor/groomer.

wahl medalist: Any ideas on placement of metal part during reassembly?

Wed, 09 Mar 2022 11:03:33 -0700

Basically dismantled the unit to clean as hair gets everywhere, a small metal part fell out before i had the chance to take a placement photo, and now can’t quite figure how it’s meant to realign. Everything else appears to be in order I just can’t place this small metal lever which I’m guessing is what closes the circuit.

Below is an image of the unit which illustrates the area where the black plastic switch is meant to slot in on the bottom of the image, along with the black plastic switch underneath the unit alongside the metal part that I cannot seem to place correctly. You can see the small metal solder on the bottom right of the motor unit, which i suspect may be what the metal ‘clip’ part is meant to close the circuit on:

Below are close ups of the actual metal part that I cannot fit correctly into the unit:

Below is an image of the black plastic switch in position within the unit:

Can upload more images if there is something specific that i need to include.
