Introduction
If you need to fix or reinstall a new trigger for your Ryobi P214 cordless drill, access the inside panel with this guide. The trigger, when pressed, completes a circuit with the battery to turn on the drill. A faulty trigger will cause the drill to not turn or to turn off randomly while using the drill. Before beginning, make sure to power off your P214 drill off by completely disconnecting it from the battery.
