2023 Parkside Performance Jigsaw teardown and differences

I opened my new 2023 PSSPA 20-Li C3 Jigsaw with SmartConnect and I compared with the previous 2022 model, to see what has changed inside.
Fairly minor update, but one change surprised me.

pivot attached to housing can lead to less blade flex which is an issue with older models. Open frame motor has more way to cool it self now. If they do this, they also probably fix issue with dust debris getting everywhere. I would say those are not so "minor" changes if you know the production process of anything mass scale.

There is a D3 model now?

Thanks for the Video!
Whats about the Buttons? Have they got an improvement? The B2 Version had a lot of problems with the buttons. Infact of an incorrect position (production tolerance) in the inside, they are not centered to the outer button „cap“ and so the response is often very poor.

I did not notice any change, but that said I didn't notice the buttons being incorrectly placed in my unit of the 2022 model either. Mine was fine.

Hello, my jigsaw when turned on, only flashesh light few times 8-9 and thats all, i hear the motor like try to start and move a tick and thats all, do you know what can be the problem?

[@MiguelCamba]

Yes, I do. It happened the same to mine. I asked for my money back, and lidl was quick in doing it. And told me to keep the tool. Since I had nothing to loose I tried to fix it and I did, but I'm not sure how long it will last. I think it will eventually fail again.
Essentially, the rotor rubs with the stator preventing the motor from starting. And this happens because parkside thought it was a good idea to put the bearing that keeps both perfectly aligned in the housing of the tool instead of having the motor have its own housing around. If the shell of the tool is even slightly bent that may be enough for the motor to stop working.
I only opened the machine, adjusted things a bit, and screwed the case very carefully, making sure all screws are evenly tightened. If you tight a screw even a little bit too much that can be enough to make the rotor loose alignment and stop working.

Hello, the versions are worth buying PSSPA 20-Li C3 ?

[@DomovoiMilanovicz]

The bearing of the new version is positioned in the housing of the saw... genious! 🤦🏻 Old motor-housing was way better!

[@MiguelCamba]

In fact that has already given me problems. The rotor quickly became misaligned and started to rub on the stator. No bueno.

[@leonlionheart5927]

@@MiguelCamba Do you mean the newer model or the older one?

[@theforestranger]

I just want to know, how you got this newcoming parkside tool

[@thegarageproject210]

I had a problem with the previous saw, I reached to tech support and they said that they would send me a new saw but they were out of stock and awaiting a new shippment. If I didn't mind waiting they would send me one as soon as they arrive, and 3 days later they received the saws and sent me this that turned out to be the refreshed 2023 model.
It's not a massive improvement really, but I *think* that it vibrates a tiny bit less. I didn't notice any difference in power or speed.
