DIY: Replacing Shaver Internal Batteries In 15 minutes!

This video shows how I replaced the rechargeable internal batteries of my Philips Philishave model 5885 (also valid for Norelco shaver model of the same number) shaver, in less than 15 minutes! I hope that it is useful to some.
Cette vidéo montre comment j'ai remplacé les batteries rechargeables de mon rasoir Philips Philishave numéro de modèle 5885 (valide pour le Norelco du même numéro)‚ en moins de 15 minutes! J'espère qu'elle sera utile à certains.

Why don't these A-hole designers/engineers put a simple connector inline to easily replace the battery? My 25 yr old Panasonic phone has one and it takes 20 seconds to change it.

Mine is the same model(hq5885). It does not power on. The R1 resistor near the 220v power cord inlet is broken. According to the service manual, I need to replace the R1 resistor which acts as a fuse. Please advise what type of resistor I should buy. My resistor colors are gold-black-orange?-orange? It looks like 33 ohms 5% but I am not sure. How many watts(W) of resistor do I need?

I have two of that model shaver and I replaced the batteries on both and neither one of them work. When you press the button the motor does not run. The display works and shows a charge. That model is very complicated to troubleshoot with all the circuitry it has. It would have been nice if you would have showed a working repair .

I had the exact same issue. The small surface mount resistor labeled R070 close to the positive terminal of the battery on the back of the pcb (it was blue on mine) needed to be replaced on mine. To check it measure it with a ohmmeter, if it reads anything under 0.10 ohm it's good if it reads higher or open circuit (OL) it's burned. Since it's a 0.07 ohm "current sensing" resistor it should be replaced by a new one of the same value. I initially tried to bypass it with a small wire and although the rasor worked fine at first it eventually trew off the charge/discharge sensing circuit which led to the charged batteries only lasting a couple of shavings.
Also note that the full service manual with schematics and explainations of circuit functions is available online if you search. Very useful stuff.

Hallo. Ich habe den gleichen Rasierer. Akku getauscht. Jetzt weiß ich nicht mehr wo das Teil mit dem grün/weißen Kabel hin gehört. Sieht aus wie ein Schalter. Wozu dient das? Kannst du mir das bitte in einem Video zeigen? Ich brauche die Position dieses Schalters.
Hello. I have the same razor. Battery pocketed. Now I don't know where the part with the green / white cable belongs. Looks like a switch. What is it for? Can you show me this in a video, please? Position this Switch.

Looks like it is the main power switch, and from my video, it goes underneath the motor. But I have not taken it or the motor apart myself, so I do not know how to re-install it, sorry.

It's the switch that detects when the blade head is removed (to reset the blade clean signal/warning). It's a fragile little piece of white plastic that goes to the left side of the blade head when looking at it from behind (with the casing opened). I broke mine accidentally and just removed the switch and wires all together, works fine except for warning signal not reseting...
