Hi, my battery Husqvarna has just started playing up. When the trigger is released the chain/motor stops for second then very slowly begins to creep around. If you apply and then release the chain brake it stops. The cycle then repeats at every trigger press.

any ideas?

As ADW said, part of the CST check is the throttle solenoid position at full speed and idle on both Battery and Petrol equipment. Any dealer or outfit with access to CST will be able to do this check relatively easily and advise.

I would agree that the throttle may be holding itself open with an ingress of chip or piece of bark etc. You could check this out beforehand if able.

So, turns out the little flat spring that activates the switch had somehow gone the wrong side of the trigger (marked in red), so wasn’t switching off completely. At least it’s something and nothing. Learn something everyday 😎
